There's a story about a USB hard disk + commercial Mandrake bundle: http://linux.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=04/08/28/2137245&tid=147&tid=198&tid=1&tid=218
I tried doing this with Fedora before, but hit a problem - the kernel mounts the root filesystem http://www.simonf.com/usb/ So, we can DIY our own Linux boot media - flash or hard disk. A flash device might have problems with their write cycle, won't it? Thus they use their own custom filesystems. -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
