Let me elaborate. I thought Steve was concerned about the limited 
writablity of flash.

My thought was to build something like a Linux router, you'd have to load 
the OS into a RAMdisk (or something similar), and only write to flash when 
the config changed. Which means you'd need some sort of singular 
configuration file.

But I was wrong. :) He meant "read-only"
