RE: [pfSense Support] Packages on WRAP

In the future if I need more space on the wrap platform I was considering the same thing.   John   From: Bill Plein [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2005 11:39 PM To: support@pfsense.com Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] Packages on WRAP     On 10/16/05, John Cianfarani <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Not sure if this is something you care about since you really don't want packages installed on the wrap or not.   I haven't voiced this opinion yet, but this is an opportune moment.   Due to the relatively inexpensive prices, I was considering using a 4GB Minidisk on my Wrap platform. Due to the real disk vs. CompactFlash, the issue of limited writes goes away (CompactFlash can only accept so many writes over it's lifetime). It may not be fast, but it would be acceptable.   If I go this route, I will attempt to install a full (LiveCD) version versus the Embedded version, in order to enable packages and more easily take advantage of the larger disk.   -- -- Bill Plein
