I just completed what I had in mind one year ago. I moved the Slackware 11 installation off the IDE hard drive onto a compact flash disk. The host OS boots off the compact flash and runs off a ramdisk.

My next step is to reduce the size of the host OS -- as it is, when uncompressed, it occupies 128MB of disk space and therefore, 128MB of ramdisk.
