Bear in mind the limited write lifetime of flash memory. Don't put /var
or /tmp on such a card if you can avoid it.

Hack out anything you think is unnecessary

Firefox is crashing on me all the time. I searched for an alternative
and came up with epiphany. I like it but I can't get flash to work.
I've emerged epiphany with the xulrunner USE flag and I've re-emerged

working? Can java be mad
