Throwing my $.01 in here as an owner of an X31 -- I don't believe there is any way to get them to boot off of the a CF card in that slot. At least there wasn't the last time I looked into the idea 2 years ago.

Here's an old posting from this list about it...

If someone can prove me wrong, I'd be pleased to know of it.
