I humbly submit my distro of choice (of course, it is the disto I started 
;), KnoppMyth for your consideration.  In most cases, a KnoppMyth is install 
is quick, easy and straight forward.  KnoppMyth is meant to be installed on 
hardware that is detected as a set-top box.  While I am bias, others seem to 
like it as well.
