CRUX PPC |
| The PowerPC port of CRUX is a contributed project by Giulivo Navigante, a student in Napoli, Italy. The original i686 edition of CRUX is a very light-weight distribution without GNOME or KDE, designed for more experienced Linux users, and the PowerPC port doesn't depart from this philosophy. The included software works best on G3 and G4 processors; it supports PegasosII, dual CPUs, and also has some special features, such as CPU frequency scaling for laptops. One of the strength of the project is excellent and comprehensive documentation, as well as user forums, available on the CRUX PPC web site. The distribution is released under the GPL and available for free download.

Fedora Core |
| With a lot of help from Linux open-source software and a little help from ClarkConnect, you can transform standard PC hardware into a dedicated broadband gateway and easy-to-use server. The software is a great solution for small businesses, home offices, and networked homes! Starting with Red Hat as a base, we have removed unnecessary software, secured it, added useful Internet gateway software, and made it easier to install.

Gentoo Linux |
| Devil-Linux was created by Heiko Zuerker, a US-based German IT manager (see this interview published by Portazero). It is a specialist Linux distribution designed primarily to be used as a CD-based firewall or router. The goal of Devil-Linux is to have a small, customizable and secure Linux installation. Of course, the main advantage of a CD-based firewall is that the files on the CD cannot be modified by an intruder - if you think somebody managed to break into your system, just reboot and the data in the RAM-disk are clean again. The other advantage is that it only takes 15 - 30 minutes to have your firewall up and running.
