I don't really see the point in having a yet another
distribution. Just take an existing distribution and configure it to
fit this task. Optionally contribute back some new packages.

Configuring a system for GPS-only use is an interesting challenge.

1) The filesystem probably should be read-only so that you can turn
the power off at any time, right?

2) The only volatile part of the filesystem would then be the gps
tracks?
