Monkey Linux Description

Monkey Linux is a minimal Linux ELF distribution in 7.5MB archive (5 diskettes) Monkey Linux is a minimal Linux ELF distribution in a 7.5 MB archive (5 diskettes) Monkey Linux can be extracted to the DOS filesystem (to the FAT32 too). This is complete small ELF distribution with latest kernel on 5 diskettes. Monkey can run on this minimal HW: 386SX, 4MB RAM, 30MB on IDE HDD.Contain X Window for any SVGA videocard, support for network, support for 3C5x9, 3c59x, 3c900, NE2000/NE1000, WD80x3 ethernet cards, ATAPI/MITSUMI CD.
