Is there anyway to put MY Ubuntu on a bootable USB? I've created a persistent USB but that's not what I want. I want all my configurations. I have an 8 GB USB.

Thanks for the help, but that gives me a clean install, not my install. I've gone so far from the default Ubuntu that I don't want to re-configure everything. On the other hand, I might be able to use remastersys to create an ISO of my config and use unetbootin to create the bootable flash that way. Whatchya think?
