Hi all,
Has anybody looked into using a CF card as a harddisk replacement? I see these adapters to 3,5" disk cable popping up in stores and auctions. Does anybody know if one could replace the connector with a 2,5" plug taken from a 2,5"-3,5" adapter? These CF-IDE controllers look very small...
The idea would be to get a Libby with better battery time... A 128 MB disk would be wnough for a Win95 or a small Linux OS, with a little room to spare for typed docs... :-)
BTW, the Terabytes site has a floppy that boots HD0, check out the util FDD2HD, for some or other reason. Maybe one could make something that would boot a pcmcia card?
