Goal: Bootable read/write Linux RAM Disk that interfaces directly with a USB Key Step 1: Minimal Linux RAM Disk using busybox and ulibc Step 2: RAM Disk should be bootable by CDROM or USB Key Step 3: The RAM Disk should look for a disk label that identifies a specific (predetermined) USB Key Step 4: RAM Disk should mount the USB Key read/write as either a new root fileystem or or into a /mnt/usb directory This project is very similar in spirit to a Knoppix boot CDROM (though minimal instead of full featured), but will use a CDROM/USB Key hybrid. Knoppix's main filesystem is read only by using a loop back device. We'd like the majority of the system to be read/write by utilizating a RAM Disk and a USB Key. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement). ## Platform Linux
