What does 2 or 8 GB matter if he's using internal flash of 256 MB, and an external SD card of 2 GB (default N810)?

IMO it seems best to run your OS, and use a Debian install on your external SD card. Run your preferred apps in the chroot, and export them to DISPLAY=:0

If you have only 2 GB external SD you'll have to limit the other files on the card. But that goes without saying. For this purpose a bigger (and/or faster) SD card might be preferable.
