Re: LiveUSB Linux distro for programming?
You could get a stock Ubuntu distro (recommend xubuntu as it's very light), use the ubuntu start up creator to create a liveUSB with persistence

Then you can install apps on to the usb drive.

It's excellent.

Another really good way to do it is to install debian or something light to an external hdd. However USB2.0 is really slow..
