Doesn't matter what distro you use.  Anyone you can get working easily will be fine.

If you want something you can run easily, try a bootable "mini" distro, like Puppy Linux or even System Rescue CD.  These will boot and run straight from the install media, which means for the VM, just create a couple of blank disk images, attach the ISO, and boot from the ISO and you're good to go.
