Related to OP's question: is it possible to have the 1B boot from something other than an SD card?
I ran it as a PiHole for awhile, until it chewed through two SD cards. I'd like to use it for the GPIO functionality but I don't want have it randomly crap out again.
Yes you have the kernel in the SD card and the root on usb
You may want to try sd cards designed for security cameras. They are meant to be recorded to 24/7 and have higher write endurance.
I don't believe so - the docs mention several ways to boot a pi but most only work for newer models.
An option might be to boot an SD card read-only and run everything over NFS. It's trivial to do that sort of thing with some UNIX clones (OpenBSD, for instance), but I don't know about a modern Linux.
