You can boot from a CF card for example and the create from the system an gigantic initrd which decompress into a ramdisk. I have a truck MAN 12x12 (88 tonns) and I have to use Ramdisks to use my Computers while I am Off-Road... Oh yes, my mass storage are CF cards of 2 and 4 GByte plus IBM Microdrives (heavily robust) and Laptop HDD's (they are more robust then standard HDD's) in conjunction with 3Ware 3w8500-12. (You can put up to 4 3Ware cards) in your Computer, but it would require Linux 2.6. And last not least, you should only install Packages YOU NEED. On one Computer I have Mozilla and OpenOffice plus fvwm and it forks fully in 8 languages... ...and the installed system has only 1,1 GByte.
