Well, any Linux distro can be a command based distro, and , if you want to run it from within windows, Ubuntu is the one that uses the wubi installation method, and can be run within windows.
You can run Linux from a LiveCD or USB stick also, but that's apart from Windows.
One distro you might want to try would be Parted Magic. While it's main use is for Disk Partitioning and rescuing broken computers, once it loads up, it runs in memory, so, it's as fast as any Linux distro, even though it's not installed.
Maybe you should explain more about what you want to achieve, or, what specifically you need a command based distro for. We might be able to point you in other directions.0 -
The best way to learn how the system really works is to work without a gui, in complete cli mode. You can do it with any distro by changin the init level in /etc/inittab to mulit-user cli mode which is a number that can vary by distro.
I will do what I can to help guide you.0 -
The last two posts are good ones. I would try them out. Please keep us posted if run into issues.0

# Default runlevel. The runlevels used by RHS are:
# 0 - halt (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
# 1 - Single user mode
# 2 - Multiuser, without NFS (The same as 3, if you do not have networking)
# 3 - Full multiuser mode
# 4 - unused
# 5 - X11
# 6 - reboot (Do NOT set initdefault to this)
