I have fit Linux (including Perl, IPSEC, iproute2 and other goodies) into a 
16M CF card.  Asterisk is TINY compared to the 40MB Perl install I had in 
there.

I can help you with it, or you can go out on your own and try -- I used Linux 
 From Scratch (http://www.linuxfromscratch.org) but there is also the tuxroot 
buildkit which seems to be the "more better" way of doing it these days.  You 
can also check out the openwrt distribution (http://www.openwrt.org) and 
customize it to include the Zap drivers and Asterisk.  

Contact me offlist if you would like any more assistance on this -- I think 
you will find though that it is quite easy to make small versions of Linux 
and that Asterisk plays nicely in confined environments.  :-)

Regards,
Andrew
