I want to build a kid friendly web-kiosk for my 3yo to play one of his favourite websites.
I've toyed with puppy the last few nights, and I think it's fantastic for this purpose, but the only catch is that there's no guarantee he'll shutdown the operating system cleanly. In fact if anything there's a guarantee he WON'T shutdown properly, and so far the system has failed to boot on a couple of occasions because the HDD wasn't cleanly unmounted.
What i'd like to do is install and run puppy from the local HDD, but unmount the HDD after everything has been loaded into the ramdisk. That way if he turns off the machine, it won't be a problem.
I've tinkered a bit with the config but had no success thusfar. Hoping I could get some guidance on what I need to do to make sure that the filesystem is unmounted after it's loaded everything.
cheers!

ps. I've thought about Live CD/USBs, but there's no guarantee he wont snap off those components hanging off the side of the laptop, so installing to HDD is preferable.
