I'd expect a 2G flash drive to be sufficient, providing you do an expert
install and deselect openoffice/development tools/etc.

The msr module is responsible for providing that file; `modprobe msr`
should bring it up if you have the module available.

While I'm here, I'll recommend the D-Link DSB-H3ETX combo powered USB
hub/USB ethernet, which was available for $23 from my local MicroCenter.
It uses the pegasus kernel module, included on the Rawhide/OLPC images.
