"Mandriva Flash is a 2GB Dane-Elec USB key loaded with Mandriva Linux 2007. It gets points for style: the key is an attractive deep blue surrounded by a sturdy metal fence that leaves room on both ends to attach the key to a lanyard or keychain. The release notes say that the operating system and related files only take up half the space on the USB drive, leaving 1GB for my own files. This little powerhouse packs a lot of punch, once you get it up and running."

Making your own distro is trivial. Just follow the LFS book and that's it.
It may be trivial but people are still using distros like gentoo and mandriva because it is less work to use what others have already done for them and you.
Packaging a lot of softwares in a usb key is trivial but it takes time.
