You cant scrounge a bit larger HD?
Possibly a 1-2Gigger?
Heck I have 2 504Meg HD here if you want one...100 Megs is pretty much worthelss...unless you ran the OS from the CDROM and used the HD as the changable/variable data location

Thats what we wanted to do with the DSL-server release, but it appears roberts thinks it more work than it would be worth

He mentioned LAMPPIX, LivePlone, and LiveZope to me...perhaps those might be closer to what you are looking for...I wanted to make DSL-server a "pluggable" make your own type server instead of being built around a single "dedicated" type server of LAMPPIX

Mini-LAMPPIX looks nice though

You could try the command line versions of Amigo Linux, http://amigolinux.org/, and a lightweight web server like thttpd, http://www.acme.com/software/thttpd/. This should fit into 100 MB.

Freesco is a "single floppy" based router/firewall with many plugins available
to add to it at www.freescosoft.com.
One of the plugins is Apache, which at 7.7 megs, + 40 for the install, makes your total drivespace under 50 megs total..
Easily installs to a FAT partition, and even downloads and installs the Apache "pkg" for you..
( after installing a few dependancies ( openssl , etc. ))
( login as root to a shell, type htp://dingetje.homeip.net/beta/0.3.x/apache_1.3.27_dingetje )

It also comes with an http , ftp , telnet , and print server,
and is configurable remotely thru a webmin/http style interface.
Numerous other modules are available like openssl/ssh , mp3 servers, etc.
