I need to create an application (C language) that uses some of services provuded by unix kernel. I do not really want to install linux on my hard drive just for that. So I am looking for a tip on distribution that is suitable for usb pen drive. My expectations are pretty low:

- C, C++ compiler (probably gcc & g++)
- something for makefile (cmake)
- simple editor (joe or nano)

Has anyone got a recommendation for such a distribution? I'm asking because I never really used a linux on pendrive and therefore I don't know any of 'em.

I googled Slax but couldn't find any module for programming.

P.S: The pen drive is 4 GB so the size is no problem.

Thx for advice ;) ]]> Getting Started and Choosing a Distro Gaspacho http://www.daniweb.com/forums/thread145593.html
