Wha about using a real operating system :-)

Quote from the page:
"spyLinux is (s)mall (py)thon (Linux).  It's a single disk distribution
of
Linux which contains some basic utilities, networking, vi, and the
python
interpreter ( minus Tkinter )."

It's based on a Linux 2.0 kernel and Python 1.5.2. I have tried it for
something else (creating my own rescue system). I think you might have
more luck with this.
