Which linux distro should i be using for an old 386, with a 40 mg hard drive?

Is there any important advice anyone can pass on to me.

All i will be using it for is doing document work (Via Vi/ emacs) that or i might play some simple text based games.

Well, Red Hat recommends 2 Gig or more

I was thinking about one of those micro distros, and i have a certain requirements

• Automated install (not absolute, but helpfull)
• small (20mgs max)
• utils built in (editor, etc.)
