I needed to install a very minimal light weight linux distro (which could be quickly downloaded and used). I found one which was pretty small and easy to install.
This one is called Slitaz (www.slitaz.org ).
The iso file for installation is just 34.7 MB (downloads pretty quickly). Installation is also quick and it is quite stable and fast. Here are the steps I followed to install it from usb (if you need it).
Download iso from http://www.slitaz.org/
Follow the steps described for ubuntu here to make a bootable USB (https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromUSBStickQuick) .
Just remember to select "Slitaz" instead of "Ubuntu version" in step 1 of Universal-USB-Installer.exe.
Found it useful since I needed a quick way to install and check my files/backup data.
