Maybe you could use Compact flash cards , they're very cheap at the moment
(much much cheaper than those IBM microdrives). I think 512MB cards are
affordable now.

Also, a while back , when I just started playing with Linux and my J568 - I
've used Intimate over NFS. (First boot into familiar bootstrap, and then
just pivot_root). That's also a nice way to try out lot's of applications.
(The only problem was that the usb ethernet hangs from time to time .... )
