Unfortunately, this isn't really possible.  X-windows by itself is at
least three disks, and this doesn't count software.  :(  But you can make
a working command-line based linux system for some small useful tasks on
one floppy.  But if you bring a CD-ROM with you to hold X-windows and some
programs, then you are in good shape!  :)

You should also look at Linuxita, at
www.ssc.com/lg/issue01to08/linuxita_mar96.html

It is a project to fit a working linux into a 20MB 386, complete with
X-windows!  :)
