Almost any Linux can install over FTP, HTTP, NFS or all of the
above.

With only 128 MB, I'd probably stay away from either of the
heavyweight desktops (KDE/Gnome).  That means that (K)Ubuntu,
Mepis and Suse probably aren't your best options.

My first choice would be FreeBSD, but if you're specifically
looking for a Linux, something like Damn Small or Feather Linux
would be a good choice.  Slackware would probably work well, too.
