This can be true, but your ideas put forward below are not the whole truth either. > In short, you're essentially asking how to modify your > car so that the engine can be removed very quickly while > your car is moving, so that you can drive around town in > stop-and-go traffic with no engine. I put a similar question to the newsgroup de.comp.os.unix.apps.kde In reply on 13 June 2007 Henning Paul wrote This [Linux without harddisk] is possible indeed.... Here in our institute we do similar things. All computers run without hard disk. And he asserted that 1 Gb RAM would be sufficient for running two or three applications like Firefox or Thunderbird in a ramdisk. The corresponding key word for having a kernel _not_ using the hd regularly is 'laptopmode'. I do hope that there are people here in this group knowing a bit more about that than either you or me. A.
