I have been using andLinux in the past (www.andlinux.org), and recently moved to Portable Ubuntu (http://portableubuntu.demonccc.com.ar/). Both are based on Ubuntu, but are not based on the latest versions. They seem to work fine for me, but I use it only occasionally, and not for demanding tasks.
I suggest you try pubuntu yourself, as I think it uses a more recent version of Ubuntu. If you like andlinux better, you should also look at SpeedLinux that replaces the andLinux kernel with a more recent one ( http://sourceforge.net/projects/freetzlinux/). ("FreetzLinux" is the old project name). Also note that currently you must use a 32-bit host O.S (64-bit Windows not supported).
