I just notices that I had a down time between now and around 10am this
morning so if you bumped your head on my door, try again and it should be up
and running...

Ok, I know this is not really in sync with "listserv etiquette", but I am a
reseller of CompactFlash adapters and peripherals that are pretty
interesting. You can see some on my site at www.net-forces.com
For those who wants details or pricing, e-mail me privately at
courchea at net-forces.com
Again sorry for the intrusion, but I wanted to share the info.

I too am am running the Imagemate (SDDR-31) USB -> CF adapter. It is
great for development and debugging. Used it many times when porting
linux to the Ipaq! My only frustration is that i am unable to boot of
it. Once the kernel is loaded i can mount the CF card and make it the
root filesystem, but that is about it.
What i am aiming to do is completely eliminate the harddrive in my
machine. And swapping out the card is not something i will be doing
regularly. I just want a reliable and inexpensive solution that gets the
job done.
