I think ALIX has boot issues beyond 2 GByte. Things work fine with my 1 GByte CF. I also notice people don't read list archives. Notice that ALIX has USB ports, I've hooked mine up to an APC UPS. I presume USB sticks would work, too. Won't probably boot from one, though. > Chuck > > > -----Original Message----- > From: David Rees [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, January 22, 2009 10:25 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [pfSense Support] Packages with pfSense embedded not an option - > very sad > > On Thu, Jan 22, 2009 at 7:22 PM, Chris Buechler <[email protected]> wrote: > > That will work for some packages, but not all.
