Portable Debian?

[Mirto Silvio Busico <mbusico@technip.com>]

Hi all,
I need to create a portable Debian (or derivate) system.

My needs are:

    * install the system on a bootable USB HD
    * install a system that autoconfigure on different hardware (I don't
      know in advance which video card or lan card I'll find when I'll
      use the system)
    * the system is mostly used for openoffice presentations and I
      prefer kde

I have to go around doing presentations and FOSS demonstrations.

Anyone have experience about this?
There is any Debian derivate that can be used? (Knoppix, Kanotix...)?
There is sonething like Mandriva Flash
(http://www.mandriva.com/en/linux/2007/node_3481)  besd on debian?

Any help will be greately appreciated.

    Mirto
