Hi, 256 MB generally appears to be the smallest size available for retail, see for example:
http://www.flash-memory-store.com/256mb-compact-flash.html But here they even sell 32 MB: http://www.memorysuppliers.com/sandisk1.html?gclid=CN-CwMvmxpUCFRKS1QodhDG0iw [I just can't help wondering where those cards come from..] By the way, assuming that you are going to load the image into RAM and run everything from there: you don't need to use a Sandisk or any other expensive state-of-the-art industrial-grade brand CF card. Read speed is generally not a huge issue at boot time. I've tried out various cheapos and I've been using Dane-Elec cards for over a year now with frequent data updates and no problems whatsoever. Write speed is acceptable. Prices are modest. Not all CF brands appear to work well on a Soekris box, you will have to check the archives for trouble with specific brands. I don't use 2.5" drives, so I don't know how well the CF cards I use work together with those. As for the overkill: try find a brand new 10 GB hardisk..
