Interesting endeavor…any practical benefits? I would think that even a slow USB 2.0 drive would provide better performance than a cloud-based file system.

That’s not the point of such experiments.

Haha, oh I know and I’m all for trying things for the fun of it! Just wondered if there was a practical benefit of such a setup.

The practical benefit would be the ability to run in an environment that can’t have any storage, but can have an internet connection. I don’t know what environment that is, but I’m sure someone will have it.

Be carefull that they dont install that crowdstrike software automatically onto your installation

Synther OP ,

Isn’t that a windows problem, as Linux macos are unaffected…

You could pxe boot off a local network server and mount your cloud drive to a fileserver that offers it as nfs to the local network…
