knoppix is a flavor of linux which runs entirely from cd-rom...it exists in system memory and sometimes uses a "swap" file (less than 500mb usually) on the hdd.
peanut linux is a tiny os as well. a google search will point you in the right direction (where to get these FREE os's)
a dual-boot is nice...but I prefer to have one box be linux-based (I use red hat 8) and have one box be windows (win2k advanced server).
