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.

I would have also liked to see the Debian-Live systms in there. It's not like they are new.

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.
