For something I'd boot off a flash drive these days, I'd probably look at Tiny Core Linux.

I was looking at Tiny Core a while back, but haven't played with it yet.
I spent a couple decades working with (and repairing) Harris H100 mainframes running Vulcan OS, so I am quite comfortable with command-lines.
But I like me some GUIs, too; which is why I run Mint KDE on my laptop.
