[Nottingham] Zero-PHP wiki!?

[Ashley]

Hi folks,

I have a wired network connection to my netbook (Acer Aspire One ZG5, which
also has a wireless interface).  What is required to set it up as a bridge
to provide a wireless connection to the wired network for a smart-phone
(Android Nexus One)?  I am trying out some lightweight distro's, which do
you recommend for fast booting?  I am running Puppy Linux from usb flash
drive at the moment and it is quite responsive.  I will be mainly be using
it for web browsing and email.

Cheers,
Ashley
