Deadwait or at In da Wok has come through again with new versions of his most famous GNS3 Live CDs. This time it comes in an even smaller package - just 35MB!

As Deadwait explains

New Gns3 live cd , based of on slitaz, size 35mb, user gns and no password , or user root with passwd root

The purpose for making this cd was only for you to not have to reformat your drive or actually have to learn linux too much. that said i have to tried to make everything point and click ( which is not actually much ) you are always better off working on a actual linux system like ubuntu, which if you ask me suits the linux newcomer the best. but if you cant pull of even ubuntu then go for dynaslax/dynataz, even though the cd has much of it preinstalled you still have do a little stuff . like understanding what is linux calling your hard drive or your USB drive for that matter.

DynatazGns

1: dynatazgns cd will automatically detect and mount your current windows partition as long as it is a NTFS partition. ( which most probably it should be). these partitions are available in the /mnt/dev directory and will be named sda1 sda2 or hda1 hda2 and so forth.

2: the red smiley icon is for the Arora web browser, and the Half golf ball sort of icon is Gns3.  the version of arora which i have kept does not support flash so no youtube , also https sites do not open in it, but you can check out all your favourite forums in it.

3: Gns3 runs as it is, just click on it, it is also available in the menu, click on the spider–> internet –> Gns3 and your up, when Gns3 opens up, click on edit and then go to preferences, click on dynamips and the type in dynamips in the executable path column, you will have to remove the dot which is already there. once you have written dynamips and check on sparse_memory if you need it, click on test, it should give you the message dynamips has successfully started.
