DOM's are not nearly as common.  You can buy CF everywhere locally.
 
I use a Sandisk 256MB.  I had problems with a Lexar 128MB one.
 
If you need an IDE to CF adapter make sure it supports UDMA signalling.  A lot of them don't.  The standard consumer Sandisk (not industrial, not Ultra) CF I bought did not specify UDMA in the specs but in reality it actually supports the signalling, just not the mode.  If your IDE to CF adapter does not support the signalling then it can cause complications.  At least it did for me.

Hello Graham,
 
If you were previously using a HDD then why not use a DOM (Disk on Module) rather than a CF?  A DOM is plug-in replaceable on the motherboard, no IDE/CF card required.

Hi all

I'm gonna buy my first CF card for use with AstLinux (so far I have been using an HDD) so was wondering if anyone has any recommendations.  Is there anything I need to look out for (such as a minimum speed)?

Cheers

Graham.
