[luau] HDD-less Linux

[Warren Togami]

We could use your HDD-less Linux experience for R Scott Belford's cashier
conversion from Win98 to Linux too.  I hope that they can use read-only 4MB
IDE flash disks on each cashier in place of their hard drives.  Less moving
parts and heat generation, more reliable setup.  Each disk will need an SSH
client and simple LPD client and server.

Scott and Dean, could you please provide details of how your Point of Sale
system works?
