I’m booting openwrt off a usb c thumb drive connected to a fanless Celeron mini pc. The pc is cool but the thumb drive is so hot i can’t touch it.

Any ideas?

    Another option would be to redirect logs to a ramdisk. That’s what I’m doing on a RPI to try to minimize writes on the sd card. The biggest downside is that you lose your logs when you power off the device, but if the alternative is not having logs at all, I think it’s still a better option.

    Of course, installing a proper drive is still the best solution.
