I'm maybe missing the point here, but isn't a bootable USB stick with
your own software tools running from the the USB stick what you want?
That (and bootable CDs) is what I use for cleaning virus-laden pcs and
installing new software.

There are several online packages of portable apps than run happily
from usb or cd without installation.
