Jerry,
Have you tried one of the live Distros on USB flash?
A live, or aka "portable executable", OS works well on
USB as opposed to a normal distro of Centos.
I've found great utility in knoppix 5.0+ and the
Fedora 7 live. FC7 (live) is a close cousin to CentOS
5.

There was an effort to release a live C5, but I lost
track of it. Since RHEL isn't going in that direction,
I don't expect (or want) to see a CentOS splinter
group trying to pick up where RHEL is lacking.
