    This does look interesting. I've been using Knoppix (http://www.knopper.net/knoppix/index-en.html#description) in a similar fashion. One of the coolest things about Knoppix is that it's so good at figuring out what hardware you have and loading the appropriate drivers. I've even used it to troubleshoot new installations (one of them a Gentoo install on a Dell Dimension 2350 with scads of integrated stuff) to ferret out the appropriate drivers to install to the kernel.
    The MandrakeMove version that lets you store personal stuff to a USB key looks interesting as well...if only the USB ports on most computers weren't so darned hard to get to.

    Sorry...feel free to kill this one and it's predecessor. I ran into a problem where the system was complaining that I put in a hyperlink, but I think now that it didn't like that it included the # symbol.
    More detailed info by email...
