Copy existing Ubuntu to boot from USB

Hello all,

I am looking for a way to copy the existing Ubuntu server 12.04 to a USB (with all the packages and such) and make it boot from the USB.

I have seen other threads about copying the CD image to the USB, which is not exactly I am looking for.
Before I start diving into anything I was wondering if any of you experts here would give me a direction to start.

Thank you!
