For some time now, and for work as well as home office & DAW, I install the

I then use apt-get to install synaptic, openbox and rox-filer. This
automagically installs all the desktop stuff I*actually*  need and none of the
cruft.

I set up sudo for synaptic, halt and reboot (and other specialised stuff
depending on the intended environment).

For the basic desktop I finally create a .profile containing just startx, and
a .config/openbox/autostart containing rox -S &

One reboot and I'm into a fully functional minimum desktop, after which I use
synaptic to pull in whatever else I need, depending on what the machine is
going to be used for - I compile specialist stuff of course.

I always get happy when I read things like this. 5 steps and you have a great base to roll out your own Linux audio setup on. Thanks for sharing Will!
