Live USB OS poll (select one Deb & one RHEL deriv.)

I am actively looking into developing a Live USB designed to run F@H v7 out of the box. I just need to know what OSs people prefer to have this Live USB be. Please not that I will be running GUI versions of all operating systems and will be trying to get the top Debian and the top RHEL choices implemented.

Just to let you guys know this project is not dead, I'm just too busy with schoolwork to focus much on F@H.

ok, should have known this ahead of time. Simply copying and pasting files from one usb drive to another does not copy a LiveUSB, you must also write an MBR (Master Boot Record) to the USB drive.

So this project is delayed for awhile (possibly indefinitely). Still looking for ways to make running F@H easier on Linux though.
