I've heard from a few people really liking SlimCD. I'd agree with the others, you picked the wrong distro. You want a server that runs only in console mode, not any GUI. I like Gentoo (been using it for years). It seems scary but their online documentation is one of the best if not the best to setup the system. The beauty of it is that once your system is setup there is NOTHING running on that server so no wasted CPU for things you don't need. That means that whatever you want to use needs to be installed. Which under Gentoo means compiled and on a 300Mhz that might take a while...
Install ssh and you don't even need to setup an ftp server, you can use SFTP which is buildin with ssh. Use PuTTY to administer it from your windows machine. for file transfert I like Filezilla (filezilla.sf.net) which support sft. Also not sure how many squeezboxes you're planning to use on that server but if they one client makes the machine peak at 10% you'll run into trouble as you connect more of them at the same time. You also seem a bit short in RAM I woul definitely add a few GB there.
