I've lost the mail, but I posted earlier looking for a distro meant to
be run off of a CF card. Like pebble, but with apt-get working. One
response suggested a new google search term, and that led me to Voyage
Linux.

I installed it following the directions on a 128M CF card, used
apt-get to remove the wireless-related packages and to install enough
of apache and perl to run cgi scripts, and I now have a decent little
web server that draws 3 watts and makes no noise at all. I'm happy so
far, thankful for the suggestions, and hope this is useful to
somebody.
