		forinti 43 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Floppinux – An Embedded Linux on a Single Floppy, ... I have a P166 under my desk and once in a blue moon I try to run something on it. My biggest obstacles are that it doesn't have an ethernet port and that it doesn't have BIOS USB support (although it does have a card with two USB ports). I've managed to run some small Linux distros on it (I'll definitely try this one), but, you're right, I haven't really found anything useful to run on it.
