Our local group started down that road, but then they got all infatuated with Raspberry Pi in 3D printed cases and forgot all about the flashdrive project. They did get a couple of examples working but you still need a CPU, monitor, speakers, keyboard, and so on.
A couple of examples worked but it wasn't easy and it wasn't really cheap (hours and hours of work) or convenient. It might boot on one machine but not on another, for example . . . If you need a whole Linux machine, nowadays everyone has a few old notebooks kicking around. I have 3 of them in this room, all old, all Linux. Maybe a better way is to just use the flashdrive as originally intended, for user files saved in a portable file format readable on any OS.
