Re: Linux on a flash disk



There are severla vendors who make flash disks that the system sees as just
another IDE or SCSI hard drive, if all you're wanting is to get away from
rotating media.  There should be nothign special about them.

search for ide flash or something similar, you'l find all sorts of stuff.
