No, I don’t need that much space. I don’t think the board in the firewall will support booting from a CFM. I did try, when first setting it up, to use a USB jump drive and it didn’t work because the BIOS didn’t support it.

That’s cheap and all, but do you need that much space? Compact Flash MicroDrives are pretty quiet and easy on your utility bills.

Look on the bright side, the pink elephant went away.

Reminds me of when my IBM AIX firewall died. It wasn’t covered under any maintenance contract (IBM refused to cover it), and $3K or so for a Microchannel card seemed a little expensive, so we went the PC route.
