YALL (YALL's Another Little Linux) is a set of scripts to build a busybox/uclinux/grub bootable system from the ground up. Scripts to build ICEWM/browser/etc are included. It fits in 16Meg of RAM and runs in just 32M, config files and directories can be saved to the runtime image.

To run the Linux image in the QEMU emulator, simply enter qemu-system-i386 yall-2.2.hdb.img -m 32 -net nic and select "hda" from the boot menu as shown in the screenshot below. The default "hdb" partition is for booting on the Netpliance I-Opener hardware. Boot from "hda" in the emulator or the IDE cable is attached to the I-Opener in order to flash the I-Opener PROM. Changes to the system can be saved using the built-in YALL freeze command or menu item (see screenshot below of YALL menu items).

Yes, YALL (YALL's Another Little Linux) is a recursive acronym like the GNU acronym.
