A "full distro" is not really appropriate for this machine.
May I suggest DSL, Feather Linux, or Puppy Linux? These
are LiveCD, but can also be installed.
http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/
http://featherlinux.berlios.de/
http://www.puppylinux.com/
Puppy Linux has an interesting option to run from writable
CDs and DVDs, allowing it to port from machine to machine.
Not what you need, but it's just interesting.
For a rather extensive list of LiveCD distros and the space they take up
you could try looking here

Fedora on netbook with 2GB of storage?
Hi, does anybody know of any Fedora Remix that would work on HDD that is only 2GB? Asus eee 701 2G has only 2GB of storage and SD card reader doesn't work :( Even Ubuntu remixed are ok if you don't know any Fedora Remix that would fit and still be usable on 2GB of storage space.
