I've been involved in a thread and have been doing some work too. Overall, DoM seems to be the best option as it works on Std IDE drivers unlike DoC which requires drivers and kernel recompile. It also supports 1M writes as against CF which is 10K. Write protect is possible in Smart media but not on DoC or DoM. I did try the hardware jumper on a DoM and blew it in the process-:(. Password protect DoM is available from www.pqi.com and www.sst.com. Suggest you look up the leaf-hardware list which has our past discussions.

Is there any real difference or benefit to using one of these over the other? I remember reading through the archives someone mentioned they bought a SECURE disk-on-module somewhere. Does this mean it can be write-protected like a floppy? Or is there some utility available to enable/disable write protection via a password or something? I have a feeling if I use one of these larger storage options for my remote LEAF application, I will be losing the benefit of a secure boot disk. The problem is I think my application will reqiure daily changes to the configuration remotely. Any ideas? - Kaz P.S. Is there something going on with Sourceforge & Hotmail or something? Seems like messages to the list get sent to me at very erraticaly. I.e, This message might get sent back to me right away, or more likely - a day from now. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
