Puppy.
loads to ramdisk ( cd can be ejected and drive used for other discs)
adding files to /archive saves to cd (if you save puppy at close) but not loaded at boot. Can be accessed by mounting cd after boot.
>use this to keep ramdisk footprint small.
Saving at exit using appendable cdr creates a new save file each time, which can be bypassed at next boot.
>think snapshots
Whereas a usb just overwrites the save file.

Xubuntu Core

I'd just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as Linux, is in fact, GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux. Linux is not an operating system unto itself, but rather another free component of a fully functioning GNU system made useful by the GNU corelibs, shell utilities and vital system components comprising a full OS as defined by POSIX.

Many computer users run a modified version of the GNU system every day, without realizing it. Through a peculiar turn of events, the version of GNU which is widely used today is often called "Linux", and many of its users are not aware that it is basically the GNU system, developed by the GNU Project.

There really is a Linux, and these people are using it, but it is just a part of the system they use. Linux is the kernel: the program in the system that allocates the machine's resources to the other programs that you run. The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called "Linux" distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux.

Op here again, basically I'm a Linux newbie and I'm trying to install to a 2006 black MacBook (2, 1) which doesn't support USB boot and all I have are 700mb cd's
