Bootup: SSD boot would be out of scope for now since it occupies another USB port (which I'd prefer to a hub) Future exception (just as an idea) is to let the standard format of all inserted USB drives to be a minimal installation plus data drive; then in the event the SD Card is unreadable, the USB boot can proceed. Note that this is probably way out of scope of the project and may more likely apply to an Alpine Linux Extended (RAM) boot architecture. Also in the future case, relying upon RAID/LVM mirror may provide a failsafe against data loss or read errors ZFS: would consider entirely out of scope Protection from heavy I/O May look to writing log file entries in a sparse way, like only a minute at a time, or keeping log chatter at a minimum for non-audio entries. Anyhow not too big of an issue Free space: I'd say that 5% free space is sufficient

System creates a ~50MB ram fs and mounts it to /var/log writes to sdcard every hour and on shutdown.
