smallest linux distro with tcdump/ifconfig utilities.
Hello,
I need some small linux distro. It should be command line..about 100mb. When I boot from it I should be able to see network cards and listen to them using tcpdump. I need it for server installation and interface detection.. that before installing actual OS. In the past we had such distro.. but I forgot its name. It was about 130-160mb only. Thank you |

You might check out Core from the TinyCore people. About 10 Meg if I remember correctly, but I am not sure if it has the software you need.

I found a list of package of tinycore(dont know the version).
That list has tcpdump in it.. so Far I haved tried 10 tinycores with no luck.. |
If you mean this list, they are extensions. You can install them with Apps/tce-ab/tce-load.

I felt like every one was abandoning tcpdump.. so perhaps going back in time I would have better chance.. That was the general pattern I used to look for distro.. Nothing technical.. about it. |
