Thanks Mark,

Auto-mounting of the USB key would be handy, and in answer to Derek re
preferences, there would be room for them on the USB Key as well.
Mandriva One with Key usually treats the Key as the /home/user directory
and saves all set up preferences there.  For my purposes there is too
much bloat in Mandriva one, and when starting the CUPS server it just
makes it too hard for the RAM (512). I fell that there is a great
opportunity to promote Linux and GnuCash with this project.  I am trying
to keep it as simple as possible for an accountant who is probably MYOB
or QuickBooks proficient, but otherwise illiterate (IT Wise).

Many thanks
