Dear Graig,

The Debian new installer (beta release 3) stopped during installation on an 
128 USB key. After mounting the key on my workstation, it appeared to be 100% 
full.

What do you recommand: install to a disc partition, strip down and copy to the 
USB key?

I would be in favour of working on an interactive script build script. There 
are several boards here waiting for USB keys (to reduce the heat) and I would 
prefer to invest in 64 Mb keys. The smaller ... the better.

Also, compressed FS and RAM virtual disc may enhance the life of an USB key. 
By the way, can USB keys be destroyed by too many read/writes?

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
