How to create very simple in advance prepared offline moodle course installer?

I would like to use CD/USB to have installation files in (1 press e.g. .bat file) to install the simple course of moodle with few slides and quiz maybe. Thanks for advises.

This has to have Apache on the usb, which is Apache-On-A-Stick. AFAIK, work in this area has stopped or rather, slowed considerably because of the enormous growth in remote computing, or distance learning, whatever. Also, AFAIK, there is a dokuwiki project that runs a microApache server with PHP and a database, but what database, I have no idea. The only other instructions on how you might achieve this is at HowToGeek.com, and those instructions are from 2010. Good luck...

On second thoughts, you could just download the XAMPP Moodle package, modify the installer to suit your requirement and install that on a desktop or laptop.

Or another thought... why not a Raspberry Pi? About the same size as a packet of cigarettes....all you need is a KbMM at your destination. Or, if it is just for a single user and you can't be bothered with a lot of fiddling around, why not use the XAMPP Moodle... as long as it is for a single user and has no need to be an online thing, and as long as you don't go modifying it at all, should be alright. 

Plenty of options...
