I know it can boot off USB, so could it boot off CF in a USB adaptor of some
kind? CF is mass storage, so possibly it could be seen the BIOS the same as
a USB hard drive or thumb drive?

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.

USB, PCMCIA, or just get a docking staton, which is also way cheap now.

But the X31 has USB 2, which is way important.
But no optical drive.
