If you haven't already purchased the hardware, please consider looking at
these fine little computers: http://www.pcengines.ch/alix.htm
There's also a Voyage Linux target for this hardware platform:
http://linux.voyage.hk/ Basically Debian that boots from compact flash, runs
in RAM, and retains and has apt capability.
Using Voyage from an ALix without VGA, one only needs to power up the board
and SSH for configuration. There's also a serial console available.
