Obviously some of these aren't necessary but it gives you a good starting 
point.  My slackware 9.1 install for asterisk is under 400MB, and if I got 
rid of the perl stuff it'd likely be under 350MB.

Seriously though it's not hard to figure this out.  ldd the shared libs and 
programs asterisk needs and then track back the dependencies if you're really 
serious about cutting it back.  I consider <500M install pretty decent 
though, especially since it'll fit into a 512M CF card if you really wanted 
to, but I'd suggest mounting /var and /tmp off the card and seeing what else 
wants write access.  :-)
