Does anyone here know of a portable (i.e. live-CD) distro that has a
graphical desktop and debugging capabilities, and nothing else? Most
portable distros i have found have unnecessary crap like games on
them, or didn't have everything i needed. Heres what im looking for:

Disk Partitioning and formatting capability:
 partition types: NTFS, ext2/3, reiser, FAT16, FAT32, reiser, and any
partition
 type that is otherwise commonly used on MacOS, Linux, or Windoze.

Graphical Desktop:
 KDE or GNOME preferrably, if there is something lower-impact, I'd be
willing to
 use it.

USB device interface:
 I have noticed on some Distros (especially Mandrake) that my USB card
does not
 work. for the sake of backup, i will need to be able to interface
with USB flash
 drives and input devices

network capability
 SMB and NFS only. worst case scenario: i have to back up my stuff on
the
 network

CD/DVD Burning capability

Not wanted:
 Office Tools, Internet Browser, games, audio/video players, etc.

Does Anyone here know where i can find something like that? if so,
please give me a link to where it may be downloaded.
