I'm just throwing ideas out there. I could boot Linux off a floppy or
a bootable CD and create a ramdisk upon bootup - Linux has always had this 
capability. I'm just a person who occasionally comes up with silly 
half-baked ideas and wonders if he can implement them. ;)

And to be honest, I figured that having the OS boot off of some 
solid-state storage device would be useful... for something...
