Have you looked at the minimal distributions that are available? AFAICR there are several that will run from a floppy (no X) and two were called mu-Linux (greek letter) and Linux-lite and there was a small version of X at http://sunsite.anu.edu.au/archives/linux/distributions/tinyX (ages ago).
My worry with little distributions (the Linux-on-one-floppy sort of thing) is that I may have to put in a fairly large amount of work to get them into a state where I can run X and some apps on them on a permanent basis.
Having said this, tinyX now ilves at http://smalllinux.netpedia.net/tinyX01.html, I believe, and I'm working with it...
