Q. I need a form of linux that is persistent, and preferably between 10-900 mb in size. Some examples are: Tiny Core, Slax, Ubuntu, and Damn Small Linux. (DSL)
Yeah sorry im using a FLASHDRIVE to do this

A. All versions of linux are persistent after they are installed on the hard drive.
This will let you install linux on a usb flash drive and provide some space to preserve the changes you make while using the flash drive.

Are these Linux distros useable as virtual hosts?
Q. Are there pre-built packages for, or guides to build, programs like Virtualbox on Damn Small Linux, Puppy Linux, or Tiny Core Linux? Or is there any low resource OS's that I haven't listed that would be better suited for the task of being a virtual host? I am wanting to try it out on my current pc before I build one specifically for virtualization.
Also, is it possible to stream a virtual OS from a server so that all the processing is done there and not on the client PC? ( kind of how certain rental companies stream a game to your computer, allowing you to play it, even if your computer doesn't meet the requirements.)

A. I presume you have a decent server so it can run big apps, so try Puppy, it's up to date and capable, unlike those others which might be missing things. Or try Bodhi, which is Ubuntu with a E17 desktop. Fast, and you've got all the Ubuntu repositories.
What is the lighest(resources"Ram,Cpu" not OS size) linux distro while still having great performance?
Q. I am aiming towards Lubuntu because of being light on resources and fast computing and has a nice interface.
I am open for suggestions about light(resources) linux distro but not in favor of losing performance since performance is my top priority.

A. Lubuntu is good choice. There are even lighter distro like Siltaz, Tiny Core, Puppy, etc You don't need something like that unless you have a system 9 years old or more. I got a regular Ubuntu 10.10 to work nice on a P4 with 512 MB of ram after uninstalling a bunch of unneeded stuff like Compiz and bluetooth.
