Topic FlashDisks not in WebOrder Using PC Cards for Flash Disks,
CompactFlash, and IDE Harddisks
If your board is equipped with a
PC-Card adapter (also known as
PCMCIA adapter) you can use this for miscellaneous types of mass
storage devices like Flash Disks,
CompactFlash, and IDE Harddisks.
Please note that there are other options to operate such devices on
Embedded
Power Architecture® Systems (for instace you can use the
PCMCIA
controller builtin to the PowerQUICC™I MPC8xx
CPUs to build a direct IDE
interface, or you can use some external controller to provide such an
interface). The following description does not cover such
configurations. Only the solution which uses a standard PC Card Slot
is described here.
