Thanks. (I had ass-u-me-d that unstable meant bleeding-edge only.)

I use UNetBootin with LinuxLive USB Creator as an alternative when I want to force a FAT32 reformat. Either way I seem to have problems with NixOS live-cd (perhaps in the realm of hybrid cds, but I am in way over my head ... ).

I've installed NixOS from flash drive recent days, burned with UNetBootin. So it is definitely possible. The other possibility is if you have GRUB already installed, you can launch GRUB console and run commands like this

root=(hd1,1)
chainloader +1
boot

(https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BootFromUSB)

Make sure you flash drive is properly formatted (try FAT32 instead of NTFS).
