Hi people,
you remember I had trouble with the DiskOnChip media/driver. I now
have a board that uses compact flash and it works beautifully. I
want you all to know about this board, because it is really
inexpensive in every respect. Is a i468/132 MHz with 32 MB DRAM
on board. It runs on a cheap 12V / 9W wallmount adapter, has no fans,
doesn't even need a heat sink. It comes with 3 x 100 BT ethernet ports
ideal for router/firewall settop boxes. Here for you the kernel probes:

The engineer who designed the board is "one of us". His name is
Soeren Kristensen (www.soekris.com). This board can be had for
about $200 including enclosure!!!
The only problem with this is that it isn't available unless we
all place one big order to get it manufactured. Soeren knows how
to do this he just doesn't have the venture capital to do it.
The board can be ready for all of us if we find a way to finance
it collectively.
Anyone interested? Let me and the list know. We need just a
few hundred boards ordered, I believe. But Soeren can tell you
more about what exactly would be needed.
Go for it!
-Gunther
DISCLAIMER: I am in *no* way related to Soeren and I do not share
any profits from his sales. I am only chearing this board because
I want 30 pieces of it right now and I can't get it because he
can't manufacture it. After one year of serching I know that there
just isn't any better alternative in this world.
