I prefer compact flash cards and IDE (or SATA) to CF adapters. CF cards cost a little more than thumb drives, but IMHO, are more reliable. I can't tell you how many thumb drives I've thrown away over the years that just quit working, whereas I can't recall ever having a CF act up. --- Jeff WN3A

Well how do you go about setting that up on a usb drive? Are you using limey or acid???
I would like to do that too.

Something I have been doing on these systems and some other friends have done is to remove the hard drive all together and use a USB memory stick. I have just seen too many hard drive failures in the past. Haven't lost a USB memory stick yet...

Think I just answered my own question ....
From the limeylinux FAQ
How much space does the distribution take up on the Compact Flash?
The current version takes up 80 MB of the total compact flash storage area.

Hi Folks,
How much disc space does an install of Limey consume? I bought a diskless work station based upon an Atom 230 chip with 1GB of RAM and a 1GB built in flash card (removeable).
I'm wondering if I can get away with installing Limey on the 1GB flash and thus not have to splurge on an HDD.
Thanks
Mark
