For those not currently possessing a 1GB USB adapter, yet wanting a 
portable, linux-based diagnostics distribution, that fits on a USB pen 
drive - check out RUNT.  http://www.ncsu.edu/project/runt/  It's 
maintained locally by Joel Ebel, who is currently staff at NCSU, and 
occasionally makes it out to the meetings.  :)  It's a slackware based 
distro that uses standard slackware packaging.  To boot it uses UMSDOS 
so it maintains it's cross-platform accessibility as a regular data 
drive.  Enough singing RUNT's praises, check it out for yourself if 
you're interested.
