I like your idea, but linuxbios and thinkpads are hopeless. Sorry.

I bought an IDE based CF adaptor that I should have in the next 2~3 days.
Its small and has the laptop style interface (44 pin) and status lights. I
like blinky lights :-)

Cool, thank you for the test.
I think I will fall back and go with the ide-->cf adaptor. That will take a
few days to come in. After that I will be looking to get linuxbios installed
on my EPIA-MII.

I believe you are correct but I seem to remember that it will only be

I would go for CF-IDE-adapter instead. SO much simpler.

Looks to me like you are going to have to work with the softsus2 folk
and figure out how to make it restore pcmica devices prior to trying
to load your sus image.
i guess you can do it either way
a) pcmcia/ide support in kernel and use that (big!) kernel to
boot from that device
b) use ide adapater and smaller kernel with ide support only.
I don't think in-kernel will be enough. pcmica services depend on the

yes, ide.
Here is the problem I am running into:

Well, when I add linuxbios, the system will be asking for data before the
