Exactly what did you look for on the net before posting this?

three words in google " openbsd compact flash"
found me lots of stuff.

"openbsd MFS" also showed me stuff.

I run openbsd from a readonly CF for a couple years.

It's been discussed on this list quite a bit almost every week for the lsat
couple months.
