Hello! 

I have a question about storage device. 

If I install a "CF-to-IDE Adapter" on the proto2 (40pin IDE socket) of EP2C35 , 

Pins assignment have been change to proto2. 

Then may I store data to CF card? 

 

If it is workable , 

and I send a signal of ATAPI(IDE) to proto2 . 

May I use hot-plugging (or Hot Swap) ?

I think it should work with ATA and ATAPI. The CF works at "true IDE mode". 

And the CF has power on/off control. Hot-swap can be supported. 

 

You can use uclinux to drive them. 

You should also check the CF IP in,
