Are there any small linux distros with wireless?
Yes. Pebble Linux has the latest wireless tools plus things like NoCatAuth built right in. It is a FreeNetworks project maintained by Terry Schmidt of NYCWireless. It is designed for single board computers, but can run on a laptop, old PC and other x86 based machines. Pebble is the default OS on the Metrix Kits • Latest: http://pyramid.metrix.net/trac/ LEAF is another small distribution that requires less space and has a menu interface, but has less advanced features. Other: CQureAP (one floppy, kernel 2.6, hostap), WarLinux (outdated).
