CentOS - Jun 2008 - Compact Flash..

Ok.. Im curious.. Can I install CentOS on a compact flash card, then 
have the MySQL on another drive? to have the compact flash like read 
only for the OS to boot from, then do the swap, mysql,etc from the other 
drive?  How hard would this be to do?

Thanks,
Ryan Nichols

Yes, you can (of course). My backupserver boots from CF (only kernel
+initrd) and then continues from harddrive.

I do not have a howto here but if you search google, you'll probably
find a lot of them.
