Default Avmap EKP-IV Linux Project!!!

Been chatting with a few old time geek friends online it looks like we are
going to start an embedded Linux project for this hardware while keeping it
capable of running current nav data/maps my unit just booted an 8 gig CF
card (Avmap SW) a friend is going to try a 32 gig card in the next week or
so on his. Looks like this hardware will make a great open source platform.

Unit Booted SanDisk ConnectPlus With Wifi 2 bad they are not larger in
capacity... Would be Great Wifi Addition.
Unit Booted 8 gig CF Card
Unit Booted 2 Gig SD With CF Type 1 Adapter
Unit Booted 1 Gig micro SD With CF Type 1 Adapter

Unit Did Not Boot With CFII Micro Drive.....
Unit Did not Boot With 2 Gig SD With CF Type 2 Adapter

I Will test Other Forms and sizes of flash memory when I can get my hands on
them. If any one Know of any sources of low power Wifi CF cards with 4gb or
larger capacity please let me know.

Also if your looking for Interface Cables look Here Only $3.00 Pluss they
have right Angle Plugs Pre Wired Add a DB9 Connector There You Go Connect to
PC.
