I guess Linux-Mandrake Expert-Minimal setup solves this problem.
I couldn't reach install in 80MB how it was promised by some Mandrakers, but 
was able to get it running, together with X, in 180MB. Which is quite good, 
IMHO.

BTW: is it possible to install LM 8.0beta3 without X?
And in less than 150MB?
I am still on LM 7.2 footprints so can't test (yet)
