One word: unetbootin
http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/ Takes N number of Linux distro ISOs and converts them to USB bootable OSes, which can then further be customized. I have a sing 32GB USB, with a full CentOS v 5 Live CD, a Puppy distro and a DSL distro all bootable from the grub menu. Others have also added the Ultimate Boot Disk utils as well.
