Or you could try deselecting ALL the packages in the install. It then should still install enough to boot (hopefully?), but you then have to go through and install anything you need manually.
See the first draft of the "Small Netserver HOWTO" online. Incomplete but progressing, reachable from:

Starts with the 505MB minimum install by deselecting all packages, then removes a bunch of other stuff until you have a working and useful system with around 380MB of hard drive used. Is also quite happy to live inside 32MB RAM, although Anaconda will not install in this space. Of course, the only reason this system is happy is because it runs in *text* mode without X or a GUI.
