A linux distro that has everything you need probably can't come quick enough.
The distributor of that distro needs to enjoy enormous trust. I trust a vanilla ubuntu live cd a ton lot more to contain no wallet stealer than a special "for your secure bitcoin savings" distro. |

I am quite fond of TAILS but of course a Live CD can't store data like your wallet and private GPG key - it is possible though to use the built in disk utility to encrypt a USB stick which can contain such information.

Thanks you for the reading. This will hopefully eliminate most of my paranoia  I suppose you could customize a Live CD with the bitcoin wallet + additional security? |
