Yep, that's the same reason that I installed my debian onto my USB key several years ago. > Since SD is a flash memory and - as far as I know - it has a limited > lifetime (in terms of I/O) not thought to run an OS, how should I setup > the installation (i.e. choosing a suitable filesystem, etc.) and/or > modify the standard distribution in order to have a fully-functional > Debian and make it compatible with a SD lifetime? Take a look at Debian Live http://live.debian.net/ It has the ability to build a live debian on USB/SD, and most importantly, has only read-only access to the USB/SD. The RW part can be a file reside on your C: drive (named live-rw). That's what I've been doing for several years now. http://live.debian.net/manual/1.x/html/persistence.html No need to worry about lifetime of USB/SD any more. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
