I need a light version of CentOS (I am very much particular

need eye candies/OpenOffice/Adobe flash/Games/Media Player etc. Just a
usable desktop, a lightweight file browser and desktop with icons (may
be XFE). Redundant locale, man, doc, /lib/modules etc. will be removed
as well.
Take a look at the CentOS-5.2 LiveCD - thats a good place to start, Can
you work with that ? Its got a fully functional gnome desktop with a lot
of other things that you can get rid of if you dont need. I've seen
usable CentOS + Gnome desktops running from a 480MB squashfs store.
The key here would be to do something in a compressed system like
squashfs ... then you can do 2-3 GB of stuff in 500MB. However, there
is going to be some performance hit in doing that. You can't get a 100
pounds of sugar in a 10 pound sack :D
