USB memstick image request

Just thought I'd weigh in on the memstick image available for 8.0-RC1
it's very nice... now we can do away with CDs and DVDs on newer hardware.
My only gripe is that it's a little too big for my 1GB USB memstick at
the moment. I know, I know... I could always get an 8GB one fairly cheap
these days... but most of the time all I need is something that gets me
booting into a kernel and access to the base system so I can at least
have a functional system before requiring network access.
I don't need all the packages on the USB image. If I want them, the net
takes over and gets me them.
If somebody thinks it's a reasonable request, a minimal memstick image
would be appreciated. Something similar to the "bootonly" CD images.
