klone needs an OS with POSIX interface.

yes, please see the list of supported OSes at http://koanlogic.com/klone/portability.html

Memory footprint depends on a series of factors:
* target CPU architecture
* application complexity
* 3rd party dependencies (e.g. openssl for crypto related stuff, etc)

Anyway, a "dry" kloned is approx 130KB on i386.

It depends on the chosen OS: e.g. Linux has an ethernet over USB  
module which could probably fit your needs, other OSes may (or may  
not) have their own facilities.

Hope it helps.
