I would love something like that as I have always built a system to test
things on it.  Maybe we could create it out ubuntu-server or maybe
xubuntu which uses XFCE I think as the window manager

I have been testing my setup and can't get it any smaller then 6Gb
system and 2Gb swap which can be shrunken to about 980Mb.
I have to say that this is a Ubuntu 'Workstation' install which means it
has X installed and probably a whole lot of apps and services which you
don't need. I could find my way around a terminal only installation but
a lot of people can't. So the questions is, is this size acceptable or
should I try to dump as much unneeded stuff as I see fit?
This installation uses Apache 2.0.xx with mod_perl-2.04 and FastCGI,
OracleXE production release, RT-3.4.5, RTFM-2.2RC3, AT-1.2.3rc4 and
MySql
4.x is also installed so can potentially used by RT.
