Embedded Linux Distro CLI only?

I'm looking for a stable, fast, and small(~100MB) Linux distro that does not have a GUI, command line only. I would like to avoid building one myself as I am fairly new to Linux and have a limited time.

Any suggestions?

slackware, when installed with THE FIRST DISK ONLY, is CLI only, but idk about memory footprint.

What do you mean with small (~100MB)? 100MB on the disk or in memory?
You also mentioned it should be for an embedded device, which processor architecture are you using?

Do you have a link to dl? How would I get the first disk only?

Go to www.slackware.com to read about slackware. If you want to download the disk, you're going to have to use BitTorrent. Go to the Get Slack page and choose torrents

If this if for an embedded project it will depend heavily on your processor. I believe there is an ARM port of Slackware but I don't know if it's still being actively maintained.

You may want to look at building OpenEmbedded or Angstrom for your processor architecture.

Thanks for the info. I am using an Intel Atom N270, it's architecture is x86. Anyone used Yocto to build a kernel before?

idk what Yocto is, but I know that Slackware looooves Intel x86 chips.
