I need an off-the-shelf ssh-able live CD, do I need to create it?

I have an iso I built for exactly this purpose. It pulls an ip via dhcp but 
has an auto started ssh daemon and a known user and password for logging in. I 
have limited tools on it, naturally as it is custom made for my needs. What 
tools do you require on it?
