In my opinion you can set up a system with a small boot time with any
distribution. So I would take a distribution you are familiar with and
optimize it. For Debian you can take a look at [1][2].

As Scott wrote, coreboot would be nice to have too. And last but not
least the boot partition should be located on a SSD drive, if I remember
correctly.

Good luck with your project. Maybe you can share your results, when you
are done setting it up. I am looking forward to it.


Thanks,

Paul
