in reply to Genuine Perl distrib with web servers

You could alternatively try to put a small (bootable) linux-distribution (knoppix?) to the usb-stick. Anyone tried this before?

    I read an article on that a couple of months ago (in the Dutch C't magazine) and it appears to work fine, except for the fact that most BIOSes don't support booting from USB yet, and AFAIK there is no way to boot linux from a running windows system (loadlin.exe only runs in one of the "startup" DOS modes or something - I'm not an wintel expert)
