Easily boot from USB 2.0 drives on PowerPC Macs
Authored by: johnsawyercjs on Nov 08, '06 08:22:51PM

One problem with booting OS X from a flash drive, is all the write operations that take place on the boot volume while OS X is running (including virtual memory swapfiles) might eventually cause the memory locations on the flash drive to reach their maximum rated number of write operations after a shorter time than a hard drive's disk sectors.
