Mandriva, Mandrake, Lycoris "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."

Have been running Gentoo on a USB stick ever since I sold my laptop. Just rsync the distro from the laptop to the USB drive and compile a kernel with USB2/masstorage support in the kernel. Fixed grub to boot the device and that's it.

Wow, is that it?

Trivial!
