I have a spare 128 MB thumbrive and I was hoping to install GNU/Linux on it and make it a LiveUSB drive. This would sure beat a LiveCD. Could anyone point me to a distro that might be suitable for this?

I really have no idea. I just felt that you might find the information helpful. Maybe you could pick one and try it out and let us know of your findings?
