At Fri, 18 May 2001 it looks like Greg Lehey composed:


GL-->There are various things in the Ports Collection.  I personally use a
GL-->camera with Compact Flash memory (a Nikon CoolPix 880, which I quite
GL-->like).  I insert the CF card into a PCMCIA adaptor and mount it on my
GL-->laptop as an MS-DOS file system.  See
GL-->http://echunga.lemis.com/~grog/diary-nov2000.html, 10 November 2000,
GL-->for more details.

Hello Family,

I was reading the examples at
http://echunga.lemis.com/~grog/diary-nov2000.html and noticed that
the compact flash card was mounted from /dev/ad6s1 and my devices
stop at /dev/ad3*

I'm using a Toshiba-1715xcds laptop.

I'm also getting some action in /var/log/messages that's noticing
the card (I think)

Now this is a triple booted laptop and I've confirmed that the
SanDisk, CompactFlash PC Card Holder works with Linux, Windows_ME
and now the final hurdle is FreeBSD.

When setting up my wirless Orinoco card FreeBSD was by far the
easiest, with Linux second (recompile kernel) and Windows_ME has
not yet worked and the software for the card was of course
designed for Windows.
