I dunno if you could fit it on 128 MB. Dogscoff had a hell of a time getting it to fit on just a 700 MB CD.

128 would be a tight squeze, but you might be able to do it. A clean install should be fairly easy to fit it on a 256MB flash drive. IIRC Dogscoff was trying to load it with lots of extra shipsets and his favorite mods.

Oh it was, but 128 was all that was available way back when.

Nowadays, you could grab a 1gig stick for a couple bucks and pile the imagepacks and a couple of mods onto it.


Oooh, what about a bootable linux with wine on it?
Insert Disk, Power On, Play SE4. Power Off, Poof.
Good on CDRW too.

Of course, it's probably not a good idea to run SE4 off of a USB flash drive anyways; all those temp file writes are sure to kill it. With flash getting cheap these days, it might be worth it though. Just make sure to back up your savegames from time to time.
