hi everyone,

i'm currently using slitaz live cd on a 2000 era pc that has 2g ram, no hard drive, a usb with a bad super block, on board graphics.. and just letting it run all day.

the performance is not bad, when i am able to get smtube to work i can stream even hd music while multitasking without pauses or breaks.

skype is flawless now.

i guess what really bothers me is the limited 2g storage, my usb that is brand new and dead, and how my processer peaks opening firefox.

any suggestions on what i can do solve these issues and get better performance wd be great.

Did i guess right you turned on your system and never turned off so you need to change you'r ram or flash drive. you are worrie about you'r data?
if it's true read this article:

dussehra, a bad superblock doesn't always mean a dead usb key. You can try re-creating the filesystem. If it really has dead "sectors": some vendors offer low-level formatting tools (alas they run under Windows).

Note that usb keys should be mounted with the "noatime" option to mitigate the wearout of the device.
