No, there are the ones used in networking equipment, like Cisco routers, which is Intel Type2 flash, it would be GREAT if we at some point could read and write them on FreeBSD boxes ... Hi, I think a lot of people will like the possibility to create/manipulate these flash cards on their laptop. I'd like to hear from anyone that's willing to start work on this. My knowledge of C doesn't go so far as to be very helpfull here, but I should be able to help test and/or provide flash image dumps. - marcel To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-mobile" in the body of the message
