Not sure about it, but you may want to check out DSL.
Hope this helps.

DSL is pretty memory-intensive. Most distros will do it, though. You'll save a lot of memory if you don't use X.

You could try Puppy or Run DSL or Fedora or Ubuntu from the live CD.

Live CD distros are memory-intensive, since they have to load everything into memory rather than using the hard drive. You'd be better with a normal distro. Gentoo can be optimised for memory usage, but it'll take a while to compile on a low-spec machine.
