Hi I'm after a fairly specific *nix distro. I want to run a server/test
machine and would like a disto with the following attributes
Small (the machine only has a 2gb hd)
Runs the kde desktop
Uses RPM as a package manager
Anyone got any thoughts as to what I should try out?

dsl (http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/) springs to mind ( extend the base install as
you require ), but I worry about getting kde into 2GB, given that I expect there
to be similar limited memory -> larger swap space recommended.
DSL is debian based last time I checked
You might be better off rolling your own jeos - I've heard Novell offers the
best toolkit - I've only used the HH one as a starting point to a vmware
virtual machine.
