All,
I have a junked G4 Powerbook that has been stripped of most functional
parts. I was thinking of systematically putting it back together to run
Linux. At this point, I don't know what is and is not running.
It has no hard drive or cd drive. Is it possible to load a distro to a
thumb drive and run off that?
What kind of life expectancy can I expect to get from a thumb drive? I know
a thumb drive has a limited number of writes, but other then the image, I'm
not writing to it, am I? I'm not looking to make it a work horse. This
more an exercise in resurrecting a dead laptop.
CTM
