I used Puppy Linux a while back for something similar: http://puppylinux.org/ It's a distro that can be installed on a DVD-RW or flash drive, and back when I used it the filesystem would be updated by writing to the DVD or flash drive, so unlike normal boot disks, sessions could persist between boots until the media was full. Simply installing avogadro on a clean puppy install and then redistributing the new images should work for what you need without too much trouble. Hrm, I can't find it saying anywhere that it still does this, but I haven't looked *that* hard. I did find this, though: http://puppylinux.org/main/Puplet%20for%20special%20features.htm Dave ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fulfilling the Lean Software Promise Lean software platforms are now widely adopted and the benefits have been demonstrated beyond question.
