    Hello,

    I was wondering if it is possible to put an OS, say Liberté Linux, onto a MicroSD card and having it 'rest/hide' in my phone. I'd like to carry a complete OS this way to put onto my desktop.

    Also, any idea how a MicroSD card needs to be destroyed to prevent data-recovery? Does a microwave work?

    Thanks

    Those things are tiny. Just wrap it in toilet paper (cut it up first if you want) and flush it down the toilet and into the sewage! Or, just snip it twice with scissors and you end up with 4 tiny pieces. Flush each piece down a different public restroom tolilet. You'd have to really be paranoid to do that but it would effectively rid yourself (and anyone else) of the card forever.
