PicoBSD
PicoBSD is a one floppy disk version of the BSD operating system descendant FreeBSD, which in its different variations allows you to have secure dialup access, small diskless router or even a dial-in server. And all this on only one standard 1.44MB floppy. It runs on a minimum 386SX CPU with 8MB of RAM (no hard disk required).With flexibility that FreeBSD gives, and full source code available, one can build a small installation performing various tasks, including (but not limited to):
- Diskless workstation
- Portable dial-up access solution
- Custom demo-disk
- Embedded controller (flash or EEPROM)
- Firewall
- Communication server
- Replacement for commercial router
- Diskless home-automation system
- And many others
