linux on a floppy
I have been told that linux on a floppy will boot up a computer with ntsf file system. It will also let you go and retrieve lost password for account. I have a friend that her son has made her account limited where she was the administrator. She is in a power struggle with her son with the control of the computer and the amount of time he is on it playing warcraft online. I have looked into downloading a loaf (linux on a floppy), but cannot find the appropriate version not knowing much about linux. I have tried two and both turn out to be bigger than a floppy. Any advice would be helpful.

Presumably the computer has a CD-Rom drive. I recommend a CD of Knoppix. If you have to use a floppy go for tomsrtbt at http://www.toms.net/rb/ Sometimes there can seem to be too much for a floppy but something like Rawrite can often put it all on.
