Hi Noam,

I only have my experience as documentation. My host helper had 2GB sticks
we could load up and I required ipython notebook and sqlite services for
the class. So I grabbed the smallest image of Ubuntu I could get and
installed everything I needed as usual while removing default Ubuntu bloat
I didn't need. Lastly I used Remastersys to make a liveISO image of the
installation. I handed that off to the helper and they replicated the image
to all sticks. It worked quite well for attendees who needed it.
