This is a promising approach. Take a look at http://www.linuxrouter.org.
It uses the Debian kernel; fits on a floppy and of course the floppy
can be 1.72 MB, if you want to cram BIND and other stuff on there.
http://www.lwn.net also maintains a running list of other floppy-based
Linux dists.

However, I'm a little confused by the complete layout according to your
original description, even after reading it 3X. Some ASCII art might
help. ;-)
