From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yes, using uuid is mandatory for that setup. Nvidia driver is only necessary if you want to use the hardware acceleration features, the basic display functions will work. And nothing forces you to not install intel, nvidia and amd drivers. You could also install the most common wireless drivers, if you know that you will use computers which rely on wifi for network connectivity and want to use the internet, which you don't want in general.
Efi vs mbr and secure boot are also issues for persistent live sticks.
