Hi,

This is somewhat of an announcement, but not yet official.

I have recently discovered of a "portable ubuntu" project, and decided to tweak it a bit. The idea is that a ubuntu OS exists on a flash drive, and can be ran from windows (yes, it runs an X-server on top of windows).

After running this, I had the idea of installing scratchbox there, and saving the image of a working ubuntu with installed scratchbox.

The installation is (hopefully) almost done, but the image is about 2-3gb.

My question is: Is anyone interested in this project/image? I plan to put it on adrive, but they have a strict policy for downloads from free accounts (up to 3 simultaneous uploads and at medium speed).

If/when the image is complete, I will post the link to it. But I just want to know: is there any interest for this?

Thanks
