Would it be possible to include the normal installer on the live-cd.

The user could then have the choice at grub between booting live system or 
going straight to conventional installer. 

This would address the issue of the extra memory requirements of live install. 
Plus the risk of live system not being able to start in some cases because of 
X-issues.

Live USB system sounds like a very good idea - but I think people will use it 
more as a portable system and for promotional purposes, than for rescue 
purposes. Maybe it would be better to drop graphics and multimedia apps than 
office and games.
