Stripping the big one down works fairly well (in my opinion better than
adding things to grml_small because you might add newer/untested
versions accidentally) and even without network connection.
Just take dpkg --get-selections, and set everything to purge which is
not listed in the grml-small-selections file. Keep the following
packages as well (since packages on grml-small are named differently for
these):
linux-image-2.6.18-grml install
grml-policyrcd install
locales install
unionfs-modules-2.6.18-grml install
unionfs-tools install
unionfs-utils install
policyrcd-script-zg2 install
Run apt-get dselect-upgrade and after some time you will have a smaller
system. Keep more packages to get a bigger cd image.

mv /etc/apt/sources.list{,-moved}
touch /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
dpkg --get-selections | sed s/install$/purge/ | dpkg --set-selections
dpkg --set-selections <grml-small-0.3-selections
dpkg --set-selections <my-selections
apt-get -y dselect-upgrade
apt-get -f install
apt-get dselect-upgrade
