You might try these guys.  Unfortunately their website is down
at the moment, replaced with a semi-helpful message:

Don't try installing a modern version of a mainstream distro as it
simply won't work.  You might try an ancient version of a mainstream
distro (Slackware 1.0 would be a good place to start), but it's likely
to be full of security holes so exposing it to the 'net would be
inadvisable.
