[ILUG-BOM] challenge: customise ubuntu basic system to run from USB

[Debarshi 'Rishi' Ray]

Is there any specific reason to use Ubuntu? If not then you can try
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/, which has HOWTOs with Puppy Linux and
Knoppix.

For Fedora based systems, there is a tool called Kadischi which
generates a customised live CD from a specified repository of RPMs.
Kadischi is still in beta stage, but they are planning to make it
capable of generating live USB devices and not only CDs.

Cheers,
Debarshi
