What Open Source Linux Embedded OS Do You Recommend?


I am looking for a open source Linux-embedded OS for a thin client. I will need to make a usb bootable disk to install the OS. Any suggestions?

There seems to be a misconception here. Thin clients normally don't have an OS installed, they get it over the network from a server.
Can you please explain a little bit more what exactly you want to do and which hardware is involved?

A client with 2G flash, that needs a "thin" Linux OS to run programs such as RDP, VMware view client 4.6, Citrix receiver, powerterm terminal emulation
