Just got to thinking about the uses of my USB CF Drive. It's a small USB 1.1 Compact Flash Reader/Writer and I currently have a 128MB card that I use for misc programing project and document transfer.

But, right now it won't be used, and won't be used until I start up a class this fall...so I got to thinking it would be cool, now that I have a board that will boot USB, to find a small and useful Linux distro and install it to that. Anyone know of any distros that would work?

Also, the sharp zaurus sl-5500 kernel may be useable, especially with the qtopia front end
