In fact I have to test netBSD for a futur design, and the only card I
have is an old card with only 8MB DOC. Of course I can use a HD (128MB),
but I want to learn how to install netBSD on DiskOnChip, because I do
that with linux and it was little bit difficult !!
I need this pc104 for make a tester (for plane!) and I want an
application to communicate between operator with a basic graphic
interface (ncurse ?). And I have to communicate with the test card with
USB (HID).
For the the end designed equipement I can't use HD, because I have lots
of constraints (chock, temperature,...) and I think DiskOnChip is the
best way.
