Haven't used it in years, but I'm not such a "throwaway" type of person.
The reason we picked it is
- its easy to get bootable
- you only need a 2 GB stick
(actually, even a 1 GB would do it, but at that time 2 was the smallest size available)
so we could give copies of the stick to all who were backup'ing older Linux systems and replacing them with the new university image.
BTW: I didn't send the script we used for that - I wrote it myself but it's much too specific for our situation. And it's in Dutch too.
And I kept it because it is a good emergency system too when the boot of my computer(s) should fail.
