Hi, I have a CappuccinoPC Cash 4000 (link) (http://www.cappuccinopc.com/cash-4000.asp) box and would like to install a server distro on it to use as a basic router/NAT box. My question is what would be the appropriate filesystem to use for such a device given that it's not using a traditional hard disk. I plan on having syslog log its stuff over the network and not locally as to minimize I/O, but I'm still not sure for a flash device how best to install it to minimize other I/O and wear on the "disk". It has a 2 gig flash disk, and I figure just format one entire single partition for the OS with no swap.
