RE: Flashboard questions...

Ok, but you are missing my point, then..  There are different modes of connecting memory cards to devices than ide.  Just look at the Linksys wrt54g SD card mod.  That router DOES NOT have anything resembling a IDE/ATA interface.

While Compact flash is based on a IDE type interface, SD cards are not.

To use a SD/CF/etc card requires an ATA interface.

Simply not available on the ROM board or flash board.  That's a whole
different animal.  The ROM/mem board is just that - memory.  The OS does
some magic to make the ROM magically appear in RAM (kinda similar to a
RAM disk - but it isn't).

To read/write mem cards is completely different, and a completely
different circuit and interface methodology.  You can't just unsolder
the ROM, and solder on a connector to put in an SD/CF/whatever card.
