Hello! I have a project taking shape that would eventually have a system booting a file-system from USB.
I remember that we had a method of doing something of a sort from USB, using the contents of the v1 release. To be honest I am not even sure I remember the details behind it, or the individual who was the developer behind it, just that it was possible. Up to a point of course.
Now the project, essentially it would be an EPIA type board with a USB device a file-system, when booted we'd have a Linux prompt and all of the usual features thusly. The networking card would be a commodity wireless one.
The problem is that of selecting the board, and then configuring it to do that. I would like recommendations. The problem is of course money I would like it to be under 100 dollars US for the board. Preferably below 60 dollars US for it.
Currently the file-system I've chosen is that of RUNT Linux, the fact that is a UMSDOS based arrangement built using Slackware Linux is that of the reason.
And naturally when the thing came up and started the classic doing something specific phase, that's where I'd be ending up with designing a gizmo to do most of that. And coding the programs behind it. -- Gregg C Levine hansolofalcon@worldnet.att.net "The Force will be with you always." Obi-Wan Kenobi
