I would like to create an OS-agnostic installation of Ubuntu on a flash drive, that boots under Ubuntu and under Mac OS X.

Ideally the process would look like:

  1. Install Ubuntu 11.10 (or 12.04 if necessary) on a flash drive (from Ubuntu).

  2. Boot from flash drive (on PC) to modify files, etc.

  3. Plug drive into Mac with OS X 10.4, boot to Ubuntu from it, and use.

I have an 8G flash drive. What is the sanest way to do this?
