Slitaz
From LXDE.org
Slitaz is an extremely small live cd using most of the components of LXDE.
The goal of SliTaz is to have a GNU/Linux distro working in memory (RAM). Installable to a hard disk, with good support for French language web, it offers reliability, high performance and PC recycling. SliTaz boots with Syslinux and provides a simple to use and very fast operating system with SQLite database, rescue tools, IRC client, SSH client/server powered by Dropbear, X window system, Openbox, gFTP, Geany IDE, Mozilla Firefox, Alsaplayer, Gparted, a sound file editor and much more.
SliTaz boots from either a CD or a USB flash drive, into a LXDE desktop running on top of Xvesa, and uses BusyBox for all of its main functions. It has a good range of desktop and rescue software and can be loaded entirely into RAM (as space permits), be installed on a USB stick or to a hard drive.
[edit] Applications
SliTaz comes with Mozilla Firefox installed as the default web browser, the Lighttpd web server, an audio player and CD ripper/encoder, chat, mail and FTP clients, a Dropbear SSH client and server, SQLite database, and home-made graphical boxes to command line utilities. More than 1500 packages are available for installation in the packages repository.
