[ale] Best base install

Ok, after spending time cleaning out the crap from Red Hat 7.3 and Suse's
8.0 (and no, I have not tried the "barebones" install - it is next on my
list) can anyone tell me of a distro that gives more control over a base
install ? And preferable has packages of just that, i.e. a "Database"
package won't have X crap or games in it, just databases.
I suspect Gentoo is done this way. I don't know about Slackware and
Debian, so, .... can any users of these two distros enlighten me ? (I have
already gone past Mandrake - just another bloatware distro).
TIA
Greg C.
