I have a spare 32 MB DiskOnModule to experiment with.Will it be sufficient to install LFS (ofcourse with X and networking).The LFS site says 8 MB and 5 MB.Is it really possible.has anybody tried? (I hope I dont have to write big scripts,I'm not a trained progammer)

It should be possible. Although I've no idea how you cram X down that small, Damn Small Linux have done it on a 50Mb business card cd and afaik they use precompiled debs. Check out the docs referenced on the LFS site (summary: optimize for size and only install exactly what you need).
