Best distro for these hardware specs?


Hi, I want to give a VERY old and crappy system a breath of fresh air, and linux seems to be best for this type of thing. Now, I may be stretching it, but I would like to know which distro would run on these specs:

120 mhz CPU
32 mb RAM
2gb HDD

If at all possible I would like to know a distribution that will install and run directly from the HDD (i.e. not a live CD). I know it might be impossible, but I thought "Heck, why not ask anyways, worse they can do is point and laugh"

Thanks in advance for your input.

p.s. Like I always say, its sometimes hard to understand what I'm trying to say, so if it's at all unclear, ask me to clarify.
