i was curious as to what most people out there use for embedded freebsd
setup in terms of boot/storage space. the existing choices i guess are:

- compact flash with cf <-> ide adapter.
- solid state drives.
- diskonchip (well, i guess solid state can be build from diskonchip?)
- something else i am not aware of.

i kind of know advantages of X to Y, but would like to hear what other
people have to say. anything works well? anything just doesn't work at
all? feel free to reply to me only and i can summarize back to the list.

thanks,
