I did this sort of system a while ago. I've used 1GB card with gentoo
and cf-ide adapter. There are some tricky parts that nobody mentions.
One of them is that I wasn't able to boot from my 1GB "hard drive" when
it was connected via 80 pin ide cable, I've dig up some old 40 pin ata
cable and it worked.

Other things you have to remeber concern file system usage, you musn't
create swap partition, disable local syslog, log rotation, turn
everything except desired daemons etc.



Where did you get the idea not to use swap?

What file system did you use?
