I've also managed to save a script I've found on the net that will allow you to put several live distros on a single disc/USB drive and boot up to a menu so you can select which one to boot up.

Pretty cool

Have to file later....

One thing is there are "drives" that interface between IDE/SATA ports and a SD Chip that goes into cameras. I have picked up a simple 4 GB chip and used it with OpenBSD operating system. Boots up very fast !

PortableApps rocks. I’m drifting all my PC stuff onto a USB memory. Between that, DropBox (folder that auto-mirrors contents to anywhere it’s installed including iPad), and my iPad, that leaves my notebook at home as just a media/iTunes host.

For the Ubuntu System to rescue a problem Windows installation, could someone indicate what the advantages/disadvantages of a USB bootable Ubuntu would be compared to the CD (or maybe DVD for more room?) bootable system would be.
