Hello,

I am looking for suggestions re: what distro to use to install on a 2.0 GiB USB thumb drive.

In addition to support for booting from the thumb drive on machines with BIOS's that allow that, we also need to have a boot floppy that can boot into an environment in which "/" is on the thumb drive.

I have found lots of references to DSL and Knoppix, but the weak instructions I've been able to find haven't worked so far...

Any suggestions?

Tried this[1] guide? (Requires a working Debian system prior to beginning the guide.)

He's also got an automated script[2], but I don't think it supports encryption like the guide outlines.
