RUNT (ResNet USB Network Tester) is Slackware Linux designed to run off of a 128 MB USB pen drive. It consists of a boot floppy image and a zip file, similar to zipslack.

It is intended to be a fairly complete Linux installation for use as a testing tool capable of booting on any x86 computer with a USB port and a bootable floppy drive. RUNT 0.92, the initial version, was released November 27, 2002. Version 4.0 was released November 11, 2004.

What's New in This Release:
New logo (Thanks to Ken Elliot)
Scripts to make USB booting easier then ever!
The bootdisk can be created from the pen drive. You don't need to download the floppy image separately.
Keyboard layout selection by typing keymap at the bootprompt
Based off of Slackware 10.0 with kernel 2.4.26
Now has support for nforce built in ethernet devices
