I am looking to use a Mini 200MB disk livecd for use when I am away from home and general purpose internet apps like email and net browsing. I have spent most of the day downloading various "mini" versions of Knoppix and am quite pleased with MiniKnoppix 2.0 with the exception that it does not include KMail.
I have tried Slax, which the author says kmail is included on the CD but can't be found; a promising option would have been the Linux Magazine distro but there is nothing but a FAQ available on their site and no download to be found anywhere on the net; Damn Small, Flonix, Morphix Combined Lite GUI, MiniCD and a few others. So far, other than a few of the distros having issues booting correctly none include the combination of KDE, KMail, and Konqueror.
Are there ANY distros that include this combination of software under 200MBs?
I am not a programmer, am a linux newbie, and do not yet grasp the concept of making customizations and remastering.
Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanx! I'll check it out.
try " damn small linux" its 50 meg and runs fast from : damnsmalllinux.org
Kurumin is around 200mb and has KDE so it would probably have kmail. Language cheatcodes entered at boot-time might let you run it in English. Or maybe someone has made an English-only version of it...
I did try Damn Small but it does not have both a KDE and KMail interface (either that or it had incompatibilities with my system--can't remember which now). Unfortunately Kurumin is Brazilian and the interface is entirely in Portugese, although from what I could tell, Kurumin had these features.
I checked out the older version of Slax and it works perfectly, with the addition of a multiprotocol instant messenger client. Thanks to all for the advice.
To the list;
There was a article in linux journal about this topic. It was called the Ultimate but small linux box.
I think it was the Sept. 2002 issue.

Not sure what you mean...was there a title to your reply that provided necessary info?
"Language cheatcodes entered at boot-time might let you run it in English."
