ACiD is meant for a hard drive. It is not a good idea to put ACiD on anything other than a HDD. The write cycles will cause a flash drive to fail exponentially faster.
If you want to use something that will work with a flash drive, use Limey Linux. It runs from RAM, and only writes to a flash drive when you save configs using svcfg. for Limey, 256MB flash will work, but it will also work with 1GB flash, as that is what I have inside the machine.

Hi Benjamin, Duly noted! I'll give Limey a shot. Hopefully it'll be able to support the RTL8192CU USB WLAN device that I have - CentOS will run it! If I cannot get it to run, then I'll keep using the 2.5" HDD that's currently in! Cheers, James
