The 4G CF card that I use to boot my MiniITX server died over Christmas. I pulled out the card, repartitioned and formatted it and tested it with F3write/F3read and most of the card appears to be unusable. This server is (was) running Debian with the CF card in an IDE adapter.
I am now worried that my Soekris could go the same way. That machine is net5501 running FreeBSD. Is there any early warning that I can get of CF card failure? Are there any long life cards that are suitable for a general purpose OS. Should I just forget about CF cards and just boot a normal drive? thanks, Philip _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list [email protected] http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
