[Samba] What's a preferred linux distribution for my needs...

I've gone through samba.org and have tried to go through the samba archives
(but there are too many posts and too little time) to get an answer.



I would like to set up samba for simple file sharing (non-domain) using an
un-attended PC; i.e. I want the PC to be able to turn on or recover from a
power failure and load and run samba without any manual intervention
whatsoever.



Could someone please suggest an appropriate, simple and compact linux
distribution I could use? I think that once I have that running properly
samba should be relatively simple for the config I need.



A number of years ago I had a linux box running as a NAT router.the whole
thing ran off a floppy disk. Obviously this box would have one or more large
HD's so it can boot off one of the HD's.it's the simplicity I'm looking for.



Any chance there's a pre-packaged linux distribution with samba ready to
install?



Many thanks for any help.
