Kickflash experiences

[voxel]

Hi ray :-)

The kickflash 1Gb module is said to be a sort of "ram disk", application would be to have a non volatile ram disk (it is a flashrom after all ;-) ) you would like to use for some kiosk or stb style boxes.

in an interactive device with touch screen, per example, it would replace entirely the hard drive (no need for one in such device, and 1Gb is sufficient for most applications and theirs datas and you don't have to write to disk), and thus will permit a totally silent device, without forgetting the gain on power comsomption.

Another BIG interest for this is it's TOTAL immunity to Viruses, as a flashrom can be made electricaly NOT WRITABLE by a simple jumper or keyswitch :-)

hello x-ray :-)

when that extension will be availlable, all you'll have to do for this will be setting it's boot priority a little lower than your HardDrive boot partition, so if the HD is unable to boot, the flashdisk will boot at it's place automagically :-)

now let's see what kind of "flashdisk.device" will be included with that extension :-)

q- Nice to hear from you again, by the way
:-) I've been very busy with my job(s) latelly, away from my beloved Amiga :-)

Hi michael :-)

Nice to see you have recovered well :-D

Ha! a small question for you : it would be possible to make an extension like the 1Gb Individual's one for the Algor? Am I wrong? would it be possible you make such extension in a near future? a bootable one of course :-)

BTW, it's time to lay some rat traps around, don't you think ;-)

q:
Elbox products and drivers don't contain malicious viruses... They're malicious FEATURES. See the difference?
q:

Viruses or malicious features are both illegal in most of the countries and can lead their author in jail with huges fines to pay.

Perhaps we can send EvilBill in prison for spreading the biggest virus of the world? ;-) :roflmao:

Hi jens :-)

What a good news! your 1Gb extension usable on the Algor/Romulus cards! Yeepee :-D

It would be cool too to have a jumper/keyswitch to control it's flashrom write protect mode :-)

I can't wait for it! (in fact I will wait patiently, as ever ;-)
