Re Gentoo: I read E. Liddell's post with great interest and am interested to help but maybe don't have the knowledge, skills and test hardware to do so. Re PCLinuxOS: recently I burned the live DVD image to bootable USB stick and tried to install; it hung after a single line of text. I might have done it wrong and am willing to try again.

Hi Robert,
Thank you for taking the time to try my remaster. Unfortunately, I am not 100% sure that PCLinuxOS is compatible with tools like UnetBootin for usb keys. Can you try it directly on a computer with an optical drive?
Also, from my experience as an Asus EEE user, unetbootin does not work all the time on first try. I also got better results by not touching to the computer while unetbootin copy the data.
