    Live Linux distro for USB?

    Anyone know of a good linux distro that'll boot off of a usb/firewire attached drive?

    CD's too damn slow.

    If you don't want to mess around with LILO (or some other bootloader), which would actually allow you to boot any Linux distro off a USB drive if your BIOS supports it, try Puppy.
