If you don't want bloat AND you want a recent kernel AND lots to fiddle around
and figure out for yourself, install PLD Linux :) No, seriously. Last time I
tried, a usable graphic environment (GNOME that is, dunno about KDE) fitted in
300-500 MiB ON DISK. (without graphical env. fitted in 150MB ON DISK). Try that.
