I am a happy BBB user. The only problem is eMMc storage space. The BBB is running Debian 9.9 IoT. Leaving about 1.1GB space. A full image only leaves about 200MB not enough to apt upgrade. After getting a good working setup I burn an SD-Card for backup.
I have a fast flash drive connected to the USB port. It works fine. I can read & write to it just fine. *What I would like to know, is it possible to install programs on* *that drive instead of the eMMc card using sudo apt install.* For example: "sudo apt install bwbasic" ?? The flash drive is always mounted via /etc/fstab and connected via a 4-port powered USB hub along with a WiFi adapter to off-load power from the BBB. If that is not possible is there a list of safe things to remove using sudo apt remove or unneeded folders? I'll stop here, I go on too much.
