Looking to create a small, free VMWare image for PHP + MySQL Development

Question

I want to create a VMWare image for PHP + MySQL Development.

I am currently using an ubuntu image that takes ~ 1 GB on my hard drive. I am looking to replace it with something smaller and lighter.

So, I'm curious ... What are you people using? It doesn't matter which OS / web server is running Php 5 and MySQL. The smaller and lighter the better.

Any suggestions?

The debian network-setup was also a tiny and great candidate. Thoughtpolice has this and several other Linux vmware images for ready-made downloads.
