I have a development board with Intel Atom processor, ICH8M chipset, 1GB RAM, 2GB flash memory. So basically it's a Netbook configuration already, but without hard drive.
Is possible to install Ubuntu into the on board 2GB flash memory using a USB drive?

Try the Mini ISO image. Click here to download it (for Ubuntu 11.04 32-bit).
For more information take a look at this question:
1I haven't tried in a couple of years, but there used to be the option to use Live CD version on a USB with a persistent file.
Here, you would have 700MB plus perhaps a 1024 MB persisient file. It would bnot be a normal install, but could work (or at least used to in the past).
Someone with better insight will likely correct me here.
1Well it is difficult to help you without knowing which board it is.
Try to setup ubuntu on your flash disk (it is easy using the start media creator from the system menu on your ubuntu host computer) and then boot the board from this flash drive and after that install ubuntu on the flash memory (which might be identified as a hard drive)
