Hi Jason, Like yr idea - LOTS :) We may still use a disk for some logs, but if that goes, no big deal! Any idea how to mount a CF as a boot device? Quick search on Google didn't bring much back of interest. Is their a faq / how-to? Also, what kinds of CF adapters work - anything I should be looking out for? I checked on the amd64 page on OpenBSD and it didn't specifically mention anything about CF devices. Any advice would be greatly appreciated :)
