FreeBSD minimum is a whole lot more minimum than just anything I know of in the Linux world. And FreeBSD isn't that minimum.

OpenBSD is a *lot* more minimal than FreeBSD.


You either have to use something like Debian's base install (i.e., don't add anything to the software set) or hack up a kickstart file (see my response to John earlier) for RH-based systems to get a suitably minimal Linux system.

Debian variants may or may not offer a minimal install option. Ubuntu's server install CD will do the equivalent of a base Debian install, with great effect.

These days, though, a Linux install < 400MB can be hard to achieve without some work.
