Sorry about the repost all - think I had a second copy of my original
email in 'drafts' and accidentally sent it. My bad!

Hi all! I've seen some talk on this list from people who lament the
lack of an internal IDE bridge for Compact Flash cards like the Net4x
and Net5x series had. I miss that nice flash slot too, so I thought
you'd be interested to see a small hack I did in my lab today.
To build a PFSense firewall on a Net6501 without using mSATA or large
disks, I located a Micro USB key (4GB) with the right dimensions that,
when disassembled, fits perfectly into a Net6501 case.
After flashing the firmware to USB boot and installing PFSense (from a
second USB key on the front of the case) I have a Net6501 with an
internal, securely-mounted USB boot device and a free USB port on the
front to store firewall config backups.
