Speaking of which: I have been looking for a reasonable priced hardware ramdisk. The ones I've seen (albeit expensive) are essentially a brick with DIMMs in them, and have either a IDE or SCSI interface. Some have a battery to back them up for a few hours. Anyone got some pointers? On Thu, 23 May 2002, Jake Baillie wrote:
Let me elaborate. I thought Steve was concerned about the limited writablity of flash.
My thought was to build something like a Linux router, you'd have to load the OS into a RAMdisk (or something similar), and only write to flash when the config changed. Which means you'd need some sort of singular configuration file.
But I was wrong. :) He meant "read-only"

And making it *write-only* as the original poster asked, would fix things how?
