I am working on making Linux (FC2) run on a flash disk. To avoid the write-cycle limits on the flash it must be configured without a swap drive and remove any extraneous logging. I have eliminated the swap partition, however I am not sure what logs are created and how to eliminate them or direct them to /dev/nul. The objective is not to beat the flash to death since there is a 1 million write cycle limit. I am also trying to make the kernel static, w/o modules, to keep the speed up as the flash is slow. Here my attempts have been less that acceptable. I constantly get errors on the build and can't seem to eliminate all the modules. Finally, to use some sort of sleep mode to avoid the re-boot delay on the re-application of power. Once developed the system will not ever see any different configuration. Here I can't find much information on how to do this. Any pointers on any of these subjects will be greatly appreciated. If not already done, I will gladly post a HOW-TO when done. Mike
