No keyboard, no monitor,
Network connection only,
No hard drive, No CD, No DVD
Remote power supply
PXE network boot
For small Linux distros suitable for achieving the above, see Tiny Node Linux
Initially you will need a power brick for your unit, and a keyboard, mouse, monitor, speakers if you have them, a USB CD drive is very helpful, a network connection if you have it, but don't worry about booting from a network for now.
If you're not a Linux guru, this is an excellent opportunity to become familiar with this hacker's dream of an operating system. I'll give a bit of guidance to get you started, but I'm not going to write a tutorial.
