No one said using SD is a bad idea. What *was* said, was that having
*only* an external SD slot is a bad idea. We're suggesting you have some
internal storage - which could be as little as 64MB - for storing Rockbox
and the related files, and booting from.

Do you really not see that having Rockbox on removable storage is a problem?

The Rockbox build, themes, settings, highscores etc will be on the SD
card, and you will have to copy these things back and forth or live with
everything changing and having to reboot each time you swap the SD card.
