Here’s my dilemma: I prefer to carry a USB drive (USB key or portable hard drive) with me, and want to store all of my firefox, thunderbird, google chrome, pidgin logs, etc., on it in a TrueCrypt vault, and have the applications installed on the USB drive. My other dilemma is that my IM screen names are very much interchangeable over the years and I’ve lost track of who people are with all those cryptic IM names out there, so I also want to reorganize my pidgin logs in a more friendly format with symlinks except those aren’t supported in windows. What’s a guy to do?
I’d love to just format my portable drive as ext4 and be able to mount it under Windows, natively, and have Windows recognize my symlinks. That’d be a dream come true. I’d also love to have a way to run Thunderbird/Firefox/etc right from the USB drive and use the settings on the drive, without having to manually tweak any .ini files on the host. Is that really too much to ask?
