liveusb-creator , Puppy Linux and Xubuntu. All systems were tested with
UNetbootin except for Fedora which was run using it's own liveusb-creator. For every distribution, the minimum requirements, image size, boot time, features, things that need improvement and which users it is recommended for, is listed.

I'm disappointed by the lack of Mandriva Flash in the comparison. This product has been commercially available for quite a while, is well tested, and 'simply works' for almost every computer system I'm tested it on. I carry it around in my coat pocket compulsively.
