try Dragon Linux v0.75.  Its a "UMSDOS Linux" or Monkey Linux or DOS
Linux to coin a few phrases.  Not "THE" complete install of Linux
(based on Slackware) but has all the necessities so long as you have
DOS.  You can find it at dragonlinux.nu and Monkey Linux can be found
at sunsite.  Dragon Linux comes sans X/Desktop while Monkey has it
(X/fvwm).  Base installs of both are about 2OMB on a FAT16.
