Out of curiosity, has anyone attempted to run their file-system off of
a CD? I was just thinking how I have such little money and such little
disk space, but have a 12x cd-rom and a cd burner, so why not burn things
like emacs, X, motif, etc. into a CD and mount that as a file-system?
Comments on the praticality of this? I remember that running FreeBSD
off the CD was slow, but that was 4x, and, disk-speed wasn't really a
problem.
