SanDisk Cruzer + CentOS 5.1 Live = Let the good times roll

Ok, I admit it, the topic sounds ultra geeky and nurdy – but I can’t help it, there is something about booting up your computer from a USB pen drive, having all your nicely wrapped tools in there and having fun with it. In this case, my pen drive is actually the driving force behind […]

You don’t mess with the Zohan! – or maybe you do…
