HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX
Dear,
We developed HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX which gets a piece of cloop files form
a HTTP server and re-configure virtual cloop file with HTTP-FUSE
driver. HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX is small bootimage(6MB) and downloads
necessary pieces of cloop files on demand. HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX can save
the downloaded pieces and reuse them at next boot.
The detail is shown the following URL and you can download the
HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX.

I posts an artile to KNOPPIX Forum. Plase repey if you have any
comments and suggestions.

-------
HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX is developed by a bitter lesson of SFS-KNOPPIX.
SFS-KNOPPIX lacks extensibility and suffers network latency. HTTP-FUSE
KNOPPIX solves these problems.

HTTP-FUSE KNOPIX uses HTTP to get pieces of cloop image and can reuse
them. HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX can use mirror servers and proxies to
distribute the pieces. Furthermore HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX has a function to
select the nearest site by "netselect".
HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX is based on FUSE(Filesytem in USErspace).

Have fun, HTTP-FUSE KNOPPIX!
