free0n,
Do you want to run linux from floppy or do you want an emergency repair disk to boot from?

free0n:
Take a look here http://www.linux.org/dist/english.html
You can do a search on the page for floppy and you should find a few distros that are floppy-based.

I downloaded a small distro of linux called LOAF linux. I think this is what you are looking for. Check it out at http://www.ecks.org/projects/loaf/

I'm actually looking for somthing that would boot from a clean
ms-dos harddrive. I mean totally clean the only thing it does is boot up with the C:\ and one file called the command which is the stupid Microsoft logo.
Sorry for not being specific.
