Road Mapping programme request

Hi,
I wondered if anyone here has found a road mapping type appilcation that could be run on a USB stick or HDD.
I'd like to find something akin to the Autoroute or TomTom Navigator applications, obviously we cannot use those particular apps as they are not open source, but that is the type of app.

I have a feeling that the app may be easy but there will be a licensing problem with the actual maps, but I can always hope someone out there may have found something that is portable or at least carry-aroundable.

Phil

OpenStreetMap?

As all apps I know use commercial maps, there would be a licensing issue. Maybe there's something around the OpenStreetMap project? Here's a wiki page about Routing based on OpenStreetMap. Have a look at it and check if there are apps that qualify for portabilization ...

There's no place like 127.0.0.1
