I don't know about CompactFlash in particular, which probably denotes
a form factor, but I've got some systems that boot from flash which
look like an IDE disk.  In my case, I believe the flash has a
form factor similar to a laptop IDE drive (e.g., a *really* small connector)
and is just connected to an IDE interface.

BTW, this is on a Pentium CompactPCI CPU board from Motorola.  I believe it's
also from SanDisk.  I get this feeling that they've got the same sorta thing,
wrapped up in differently shaped plastic.
