If you are serious about a small distro you might want to build your own.
Check out www.linuxfromscratch.org, you can build a custom distro with all
the tools you want and nothing else to slow your machine down. Plus you will
learn tons about how Linux works from a security standpoint and what makes
it tick. Oh, and a note worthy item is that the author claims that he built
a fully functional distro to run Apache on 8mb, so size is not an issue. 

Cheers,
