This has already been done. I wouldn't Fedora for this
purpose anyways. Checkout DistroWatch. They have multiple listings for
firewall/router distro's which already have been hardened/optimized for network
traffic...

amount of space used up as posible including PPTD and Firewall.
I've got a sneaking suspision that when you install
FC1 even if you use the custom options lots of unwanted programs get
compiled into the kernel. Is it posible to cutdown the amount of unwanted
programs which a compiled to kind of like streamline the kernel.
Once you have stream lined the kernel who do you
create like a boot partion to boot the kernel?
Or am I completly on the wrong track and need
shooting?
