I don't think there is any embedded images built for that small size in current version 1.2.3. It may not be a bad idea to install the full version of pfSense on DOC. Unlike CF, I believe DOC has built-in wear leveling. It would not be a problem to use it as a "regular" hard disk. -- Best Regards. Bao C.
