I keep expecting to see Trinux show up in this thread, and as I cannot bear
disappointment...

http://www.trinux.org

To quote the site:
"Trinux is a ramdisk-based Linux distribution that boots from a single
floppy or CD-ROM, loads it packages from an HTTP/FTP server, a FAT/NTFS/ISO
filesystem, or additional floppies. Trinux contains the latest versions of
popular Open Source network security tools for port scanning, packet
sniffing,
vulnerability scanning, sniffer detection, packet construction,
active/passive
OS fingerprinting, network monitoring, session-hijacking, backup/recovery,
computer forensics, intrusion detection, and more. Trinux also provides
support
for Perl, PHP, and Python scripting languages. Remote Trinux boxes can be
managed
securely with OpenSSH."
