Thanks all, appreciated. I glanced at Picasa and from initial inspection thought this was a cloud based solution - so I'll now go back and actually read some of the background and see what it can do as a client based piece of software.

Cross-platform stable web-server is surely "your filesystem". Far easier for someone to double click an html file in a folder which references a images in subdirectories on the USB disk rather than spinning up a VM? i.e. the requirement to take the photos to someones house to show them should surely just mean taking the photos in a presentable way, not taking an entire (virtual) machine? I suspect this may be over-engineering it. Most photo apps have an export function to spit the photos out in some way. Some can even spit photos out in a static html gallery on disk. For example Picasa can spit the images out:- http://picasa.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?answer=11067 In fact Picasa would probably do everything the OP wants.
