I've got a 800Mhz mini-ITX with 40Gb 2.5 & 512mb ram. I've got 2 x 250Gb
USB disks plugged in to hold the music.

When I installed LInux I went down the same road your considering, lets
get a really light-weight distro to do the basics and naff all else. 

It didn't work ! There was always someone missing or something wrong
there (for the motherboard).

I've ended up with the server install of Fedora 4 (5 wasn't out at the
time) and I'm very happy. Even though X is installed I'm running at
init 3 so it doesn't start up and take all that lovely ram away from
me. The servers also headless (and happy) so putty is my only access,
which works like a dream...
