If I understand things right, probably the best route for a minimalist/purest like me to go, is to start with Debian because I am not a Linux guru in the slightest and the installation process is considered to be simpler than the other minimal distros.

Does this sound about right?
yes, and debian unstable is what you wan't. there are very good guides on how to install knopixx (which _is_ debian) to hard disk and configure it to be exactly normal debian system, apart from beeing allready installed and setup , but going from scratch should be not prob for you anyways.
