As my personal note-taking application, I'm running MediaWiki 1.4rc1
from a 1GB USB pendrive. Platform is Apache 2.0.53, MySQL 4.1.10a, PHP
5.0.3, ImageMagick 6.1.9.
Everything's inside a TrueCrypt-encrypted virtual drive. No local
computer setup needed, no services installed. Very nice. Runs on
Windows XP Pro like a charm.
The only drawback is having to remember starting the thing after
plugging in the pendrive (most USB pendrives don't do autorun, it's a
Windows/driver issue), and shutting down the whole affair at exit.
Now, if someone knows a way to shut down an Apache in standalone mode
without having to manually send it a Ctrl-C, I'd be just happy...
