Update:
I've re-visited the Morphix variation called Photo-ix and it seems like
the way to go if just using a notebook computer.
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to attend the installfest yesterday (Sat)
at the bookstore (2 return trips to Costco for damaged replacements),
I'd have liked go proceed that way.
I've got a P90 notebook (with working screen, actually, may just use
that with it open) with 40 meg of ram and hard drive (don't recall the
size, probably need larger(?).
No USB ports, however :( And, no CD drive either :( So what/how to be
able to change the pix easily? PCMCIA hard drive? Power down, add
picture files to hard drive via another computer, then power back up?
No network port, but I might have an old pcmcia (type I, not II/cardbus)
network card that would work for/with ssh?
PCMCIA to USB adapter? I was going to say that I had one, but a quick
glance shows that it is Cardbus.

Now I need to find an old pcmcia==IDE adapter that photo-ix will recognize.
Then find where to change the configuration to mount the drive and/or
where photo-ix looks for the pix themselves.
I think your best bet might be to take the hard drive out of the laptop,
use something like an IDE-USB adapter (I can loan you one), put photo-ix
on the drive, then stick it back in the laptop.
