Hey malekmustaq
Thanks and I remember when we came in almost same time..
what was your first threads?
My first 2 threads were double post about how I installed Slackware CD1
and was complaining that X wouldn't start!?
LOL

Although you do me too much praise as I'm still pretty newbie'ish
most here could run circles around me no doubt
Oh; I was thinking about this post here too that may be good solution
or good for ideas

There are pros&cons to all three methods I'm sure
1) reg hdd install to usb
2) frugal install to usb (slax,etc)
3) ramdisk coolness method above
the pros to a full hdd install to usb is that everything can be upgraded, etc with no problems
the con to frugal install is that to update/upgrade pkgs you must either install it to hdd and remaster
Or
decompress the modules(etc.lzm,lib.lzm,etc) and chroot into each and do
slackpkg upgrade, etc
Not sure about uppman's ramdisk coolness stuff but gotta check it out!
you may also wanna check out NimbleX too, kinda like Slax
we can go deep into all three if you wish?
I was running Absolute 13 full hdd install to usb
and I thought it was great, although I had to setup the initrd special way so it could boot on multiple pc's
I think I was using UUID or Label...I can't find the post about it?!
