To answer a few questions:
* No error messages...just can't find the right option to switch it to
the usb drive.  I did try to format it in a couple different ways to see
if that would help & no dice.  Correction....one error message on
boot...a non-specific system error message.  But I can click ok & it
goes away.

* The reason I want to put the home drive on the SD-Card is for easy
transferability.  Essentially if something happens to the computer I can
just grab the card & go.  Sort of a SHTF scenario.  Even to redirect the
documents & similar folder to the SD-Card would work.  Basically I am
thinking of what I want to do like having a second hard drive in the box
with the system on one & the home on the other.

* I have used EasyPeasy in the past & it was "ok" but I think the last
time I checked it hadn't been updated in awhile so forgot about it.
Xubuntu (13.04 upgraded to 13.10) works fairly well but I think I am
preferring LXDE just because you get that extra little speed.

* Essentially I am just wanting a simple, little, compact machine for
basic usage (i.e. office, email, etc.) to take up residence in my
EDC/UBO bag.  So I am never without a computer.
