PuTTY fits on a floppy disk (340+KB). I also suggest WinSCP321 (sFTP 
client (sFTP is part of SSH so nothing extra to install if you have 
sshd running)) as it will fit on the same floppy as PuTTY (WinSCP is 
around 758KB).

Well, you should be able to just issue 'startx' like normal and your 
local display manager /should/ take it from there. If not, try kdm and 
gdm (K Desktop Manager and Gnome Desktop Manager respectively).
