Well, one reason I asked is because the packages and the configuration of the LEAF are dead-convenient... much better than any other Linux distribution out there that I've ever seen. I'd use it whether it's installed on a hard drive or put on a RAM disk. My other concern is that if I install too many packages I'll actually run out of physical RAM. -- -- Arcana Dreams may be in sleep, or may occur waking.
