Thanks for the link!

I can see why, in a developing OS or application, following trunk would be the indicated
method.

Problem is I have no hard-drive space (actually I do, but it's GPT-partitioned).

I really would like something readable and writable, like USB stick, as opposed to live
CD.

I have an old IDE hard drive, no IDE on motherboard, use that hard drive in a Sabrent
enclosure with USB 2.0.

Sabrent enclosure also has eSATA, but that works only with SATA hard drive, not IDE.
