Hi Anna

Slackware will surely do it as you control the installation. I installed and 
run it on less than 2 Gb with only 124 Mb memory. You can even install 
ZipSlack on a dos partition of which the basic installation w/o X uses only 
around 80 Mb.

And yes I find Knoppix great, either you run it entirely from the CD or what I 
did copied some files to the HD. Now I boot with the CD and run it from the HD 
that uses about 1.6 Gb disk space with the complete KDE jazz et all. That 
frees the CD.

Regards
