I'm looking for a distribution that runs in 4 megs of ram has most of the
 tools I need for client oriented stuff.  I don't need any server stuff at all.
 I do need the ability to connect to the internet via modem.  Also I want the
ability to at least be able to compile any other software I might want to add
if the distribution does not have a package manager.  I've seen alot of small
distributions out there but they are all for single disk installations or
UMBDOS.  Disk space is not the issue I am concered with.  I am more interested
in the amount of memory that is used on average.  I'm probibly could configure
a distribution like Debian to have the characteristics I am looking for but I
do not know where to get started.  Would it be as simple as emlinating some
demaons in my startup scripts or could I get some benifits out of making
changes to the kernel?  I know there are alot of issues involved here and that
is part of the problem.  I am looking for any information which might help me
define what steps I need to take to create this small memory configurtion.
