I really don't know how you can say that. Perhaps you are looking for some truly
stripped-down system, but I don't think any distro does what you ask
out-of-the-box. For instance, my ubuntu with just one kernel installed, has
this:

jaska at lagavulin:~$ du -hs /boot/
23M	/boot/

That's only what one kernel requires, plus memtest86+ and the grub files.

DSL is pretty small, for a modern linux distribution.
