You may know I've been trying to get a pure-NFS system set up, without much 
luck --- I get random lockups for no apparent reason, possibly related to 
running out of memory but possibly not. I've tried swapping over NFS (doesn't 
work); swapping over netblk (deadlocks); swapping onto a flash card (card 
wasn't recognised). So, I need some mass storage.

Now, I could get a microdrive (120 UKP for the 340MB version). Or, I could 
get a SCSI PCMCIA card and hook the iPAQ up to one of the many SCSI drives we 
currently have. 75 UKP for the card, drives are free, and a lot larger than 
340MB. We don't need to iPAQ to be portable for this application.

So; has anyone tried this? What cards are supported by the Familiar/Intimate 
kernel? Cardbus or not cardbus? Is this a good idea?

Also: where can I get the source to the current kernel?
