Could you use anything like these, perhaps? http://www.pcengines.ch/cflash.htm I had a CF PCI slot card once, dont remember where i got it. Not all CF Flash cards support IDE (some are strictly for cameras). Many manufacturers add support for IDE on XX meg but not on YY meg so i cant really name a good brand for these. -- Sten Daniel Sørsdal Howard Jones wrote: > > On 22 Oct 2004, at 15:10, Howard Jones wrote: > >> > I've just finished preparing a FreeBSD-based flash-booting > router/firewall, which is currently using a DiskOnModule to boot from. > If possible, I'd like the flash to be externally accessible to make > upgrading or moving the flash a little simpler.
