u can use any CF (compact flash) card. The thing is, how you

address the
card. PCMCIA or CF. With PCMCIA u can address up to 64 MB. With
IDE much
more as any CF card memory has :-)

apart from kernel support for hot pluggable , IDE support and
flash file system support , what are things i need to get
compact
flash working , I am confused here

best is to start work with ELDK from denx.de. There is the

PCMCIA and IDE
support solved.

MPC860 provide interface for PCMCIA, which can be interfaced to
COMPACT FLASH also if i am not wrong ?
