[NBLUG/talk] PCMCIA IDE devices vs. libATA

[Scrappy Laptop]

  I'm guessing it will be at least a *few* months out, but if there is sufficient interest and no one beats me to it, it sounds like fun.

   The LFS install is to provide new brain-lobe for a Heathkit  'Hero Jr', hence the low power reqs.  The robot makes for a great visual aid, but using a DOC requires a more customized 'distro'.  Most of the development so far has been on a virtual machine whose drive volumes I'll dd over when they and the newly grafted hardware is ready, but it might be nice to make available a download or CD of a vanilla LFS vm, as I had to build my own and it really makes learning LFS practical...yes, a LFS talk is very doable...

  By the way, that posting should have read, "last visited in the 2.4x kernel days".
