 Linux with 512MB RAM :( - rtj70
I think the comment on flash write-cycles was a reference to using a memory card and not the SSD. SSD's tend to move data around to prolong life but a flash card probably does not.

I am surprised it did not run Ubuntu in 512Mb mind. When I first had Linux running on a PC in 1993 it ran fine with X-Windows on a 486 with 8Mb RAM ;-)
