[syslinux] OT: Help to do something basic

I need help in assembling a pretty basic collection of things.

 

I'm trying to put together a basic filesystem and kernel for network
booting, here's what I basically need

 

Kernel   2.6.22

Busybox

Networking (dhcp, nfs client)

Fsck

Lynx

Reiserfstools

Dosfstools

Vim and nano ( emacs is preferred )

And svgalib

 

And .... A custom dir layout.

 

All of this needs to be reproducible by me, the instructions are enough
if it works and I can compile on a fedora core 6 box.

 

 

I'd like to, in the future add the following:

 

Static startup screen (for a logo)

Samba

Smbclientutils

Alsa

mono

 

Can someone help with this one, It would really help get this project
going.

 

I can tolerate an image size up to 75/100 mb (smaller the better)

 

 

The first person to deliver the following will get an amazon.com gift
card for $50:

*         Working Configuration that boots to a commandline (bash or
busybox) without having to login

*         Zipped up dev tree

*         Complete Instructions (simple instructions in a txt file are
ok)

*         Working binary root image

 

(not just a link to a site, and not using nalfs or something)
