Any advice in putting up dry wall in a basement that is prone to flooding?

Don't do it? When I did my basement I did a poly sheet up my studs about 2 feet just in case as well as a sponge/foam thing under them before I shot the walls into the concrete. If I knew I was prone to a couple inches of water I would just ceramic the whole basement and also ceramic the drywall then run a decent bead of silicone around all edges between the floor tile and wall tile.
