Hi,

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. Does anyone know of a 
PCI-slot flash carrier that can present itself as a bootable IDE drive 
with an external slot? I've found some PCI-PCMCIA cards, but they all 
talk about Windows compatibility, and appear to be aimed at digital 
camera users more than anything...

Best Regards,

Howard
