I looked at DSL, and crossed it off the list for two reasons:
1) It hasn't been updated in 2-1/2 years. I need a CD that runs on
recent hardware.
2) There's no documentation on how to add a kernel module.
3) Trimming it down (e.g. getting rid of all the X stuff and network
stuff doesn't look easy).
