Lifehacker reviews some of the popular Linux distributions that have provided tools to make Live USB keys, a easy task. These include Damn Small Linux, Fedora with it's cross platform 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.

Has anyone had experience with these type of VMs booting into VMs? I really like the idea of having a few appliance style VMs I could boot into VMware or other environment that I could carry around on USB keys, etc.
I'd like to extend this to light weight servers that I can move around between cloud servers. Is anyone doing this?
