Off-topic: Which RH version to use?

Off-topic: Which RH version to use?

Hi all,

First off: I'm sorry for posting this question on the RHEL list. It's
just that it's a very quick question (probably), and that you guys
helped me out in a great way. :)

O.k., here goes: having good experiences with RHEL now, I'm looking into
the free versions of Red Hat that contain a 2.6 Linux kernel (required
for a project which depends on NPTL).

As a complication, unfortunately we are plagued by a terribly slow
Internet conenction. :(

The good news (for me, at least): I am looking for a lean-mean
development platform, a la the base installs of FreeBSD or Debian.

The question: which version can I best download for this from RHN?
Ideally I'd like to perform a very basic installation of RH-9, such that
I have the proper 2.6 Linux kernel, and little else.

Again, I'm sorry for the (probably) off-topic e-mail, and I will also
look around myself. I do hope someone can give me a very quick answer
though, such that I do not have to download multiple CD images...

Thanks a lot in advance, and cheers!
Olaf
