The Easy way is to purchase an IDE-CF adapter. There are many available, all for around $20ish. The DSL store (bringing this back to the original subject) sells CF-to-IDE adapters here: http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/store/embedded_storage You then download the image, image it onto the CompactFlash with the simple instructions provided, then you install it in the computer, and boot. If the CF card is large enough, you can do live updates without having to remove the CF card from that point on. 8M isn't quite large enough to do that, BTW. My firewall works well, and one of these days, it may even get a case... :) Ryan -- Ryan Erickson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> .===================================. | This has been a P.L.U.G. mailing. | | Don't Fear the Penguin. | | IRC: #utah at irc.freenode.net | `==================================='
