Hi Frank and thanks for your reply, I think i had read a similar suggestion on the net, but mountpoints are not called usbX in my case. They are called userid/keylabel (e.g: /media/baldyeti/my4GBkey). These are created (and deleted) dynamically and have no corresponding line in fstab. Anyway

Athlon 64 was the processor which introduced the amd64 instruction set, so you should be able to run that if you want. If you're willing to re-install, you might as well go with wheezy at this point. Anyway, with a 4GB system you have to ask yourself whether you really need that extra 10-12%
