The easiest starting point would be Debian Live
<http://debian-live.alioth.debian.org/> because it's designed to be
customisable (so you can easily pre-install VDR etc, and hopefully
easily get it to automount other filesystems eg NFS) and to search for
another partition with a specific label on the stick to use as a
writable home partition or even a writable root.
