LEAF (http://leaf.sourceforge.net/) released on Nov. 18th 2003 Bering-uClibc 
2.0.

LEAF is a successor of LRP (LinuxRouterProject)

Bering-uClibc 2.0 is based on uClibc 0.9.20 and the Bering releases of LEAF.
The base image still fits on a 1680Mb floppy  - but still 124kb free space.

Most interesting might be:

it's ipv6 ready - a drop-in replacement for ipv6 is provided as well as an 
ipv6 firewall like shorewall (http://www.shorewall.net)

a small sshd replacement is part of the base distribution - dropbear 
(http://matt.ucc.asn.au/dropbear/dropbear.html)

Additionally a lot packages are available to enhance the router, like quagga, 
netsnmpd - just to name two of the long list.
