They have CF slot that the BIOS recognizes as a boot device.

  I've got a Ricoh (Ricoh RL5C475 PCI-CardBus Bridge) with a 1Gb PCMCIA
Compact Flash card. I'd like to install FreeBSD on the flash card and to
be able to boot with the flash. The problem I am running into is that my
BIOS doesn't recognize the flash card as a boot device.

  Is there any way to run with a FreeBSD system (4.11) off of a flash
card rather than a hard drive? Any way to boot up with the flash card?

The BIOS has to initiate the booting.  If the system can't boot off of
flash, you need to start the boot off some other device, and then you
will be able to run some kind of boot management from the other device.
