Excellent question. On a recent trip to do some security assessment, I thought "how much better would my travel have been if I could have leveraged a tiny device like the Raspberry Pi?" So I started thinking about how I would used a R/Pi and my iPad to do some of the scanning and 'sploiting. Then it occured to me that if I could build up a small easily deployable VM in advance of a trip, it would save time *and* give me a little development time ahead of the release of the Raspberry Pi (any day now!).
so the target platform eventually is the Raspberry Pi - and there are a couple of flash'able distros on the way for that. In the mean time, I'm simply looking to build a small VM that I can use like the R/Pi for fun and (hopefully) profit.
