Not specifically DiskOnChip, but a variety of Flash disk, Compact
flash, and IBM microdisk.  These are used in the 8xx PCMCIA
interface.  The 8260 would be a challenge since there isn't
any PCMCIA on it.  You could probably wire it up to one of
the UPMs, though.....

I use the ATA/IDE driver.  You have to slightly modify the
machine specific part of the IDE initialization, and I have
left traces of this in the 8xx setup functions.  Some boards
need lots of PCMCIA set up, including properly selecting the
power/voltage for the interface.  Others do this in either
hardware or power up rom.
