strung together this:


Then I have a small Advantech PC-104 type board that I'm using to
provide various things such as a serial console to various routers and
servers and to control equipment cooling.
This runs an embedded Linux and currently runs from a 2.5" HDD of
notebook type. Shortly it will all be shifted to flash drive
because the board will accept one of these and treat it as an IDE.
Not fast, but not needed for this application - equivalent to a 200MHz
P3.

Sounds like just the ticket, where might there be a supplier of those?
I haven't come across any after a bit of googling, found a little bit
of info on the machines though.


www.advantech.com

Then look at Embedded Computing -x86

I'm using a PCM-5820 plus extra serial board.

There is an online store but not available in the UK.

However, they have an office in Milton Keynes who will take an order
and ship to you from their warehouse in Holland.
