How about a small system on something from gumstix[1] or mini-itx[2] running
openembedded[3]?

[2] http://www.mini-itx.com
[3] http://www.openembedded.org
Openembedded provides the framework for building minimal custom distros for
embedded devices. Also supports cross-compiling on a host machine, so a
minimal distro can be (re-)compiled very quickly.
