    I have AA1 with 120 GB HDD & Win XP Home. I would like to install Linux to a SD card and run it from there. I read somewhere on the forum, that the AA1 can not boot from cards.

    I found an adapter with which you can connect the card reader (CF) to IDE 3,5". (http://www.comshop.si/Article.asp?articleid=57737; sorry only in Slovenian).

    Can this be done with AA1? I think it does not have an IDE 3,5" connectors inside :(

    Can anyone confirm that this can be or can not be connected to AA1 please.

    Regards
