You may also use Pure:Dyne, boot from CD, nest to a USB CF media. No HD needed.

If you have lots of RAM available and really need to write something, just use 
/dev/shm which is a kind of advanced RAM disk available on most Linux distros. 
Use a bash script to copy video/audio files & patches from the CD/DVD to 
/dev/shm in RAM  at startup and symlink them to your /home or /tmp
