Being half serious here, is it worth trying to get one of these slimmed-down distros to the state where it will run an HPC job? Oh, and in addition to a barebones install for our contemplative cluster, they have a onebones install which cuts out the GUI (cue more dog puns).

Is there that much of a difference between Puppy and a minimal Debian where you install only the "standard server" task (I understand Puppy is a Debian derivative, apologies if this is incorrect)?

Or am I swinging my Debian swiss-army chainsaw indiscriminately here?
