you are doing, that's all. You could use a
floppy-sized linux kernel image and append the
/usr and /opt `partition' info to the kernel
image. ie: install NetBSD.
There are utilities in linux such as `mkisofs'
that will merge *.iso images to create a bootable
CD. However, you'd have to make sure that you had
things the way you wanted them, before committing
the image. You'd definitely have to install the
OS on the hard drive first to configure it right.
If I were you, I'd make a compromise. Go to
www.slackware.com and check out their ZipSlack
package. No reformmatting of your hard drive
would be required, and it's not over 100 megs et
al.
It works great for me.
