I just went to that site, hit a couple links at random, they took me
to sites where the stuff seems to be. Which ones didn't work for you?

I just tried some of them again. Tom's Root Boot is not there, but
that's an easy one to find - just Google, it's everywhere. Home page
is here: http://www.toms.net/rb/
Trinux, pocket Linux, floppix, mulinux, DLX are all there of the first
few. XDenu is not - home page is here:
http://public.www.planetmirror.com/pub/xdenu/
Airmid is not there and seems to have disappeared.
CCLinux appears to be a Spanish language distro or something - the one
page I found was in Spanish.
Couple of others weren't there, too. But most of them are.

Right, the one I listed is the new home page apparently.

Okay, I didn't actually try to download it. Apparently it no longer
exists anywhere that I can find.
Why don't people take down Web sites that aren't functional and run
link checkers to make sure their links still work? Morons...
Right - also I just found out it only runs on stuff like 386's
anyway... It was more of a terminal emulator than a real distro. The
other stuff is better than that.
