the aim being to setup a base image, that is under 150mb to download and deploy.

The bare minimum I have had to help groups get down to is basically a kernel+busybox with scripts that they could install whatever they wanted from there.

And for a slightly different variation on the concept of mimimal - it would be fun to have a 'thin-client' variation that would boot 'live' from USB/iso/pxe with just enough to run native X, x2go, vnc client, or freerdp -preferably with a way to pre-configure the targets and an optional full-screen startup of one of those apps. Maybe spice could work that way too.
