Subject: [9fans] nvram for plan 9
Date: Sun, 9 Jan 2005 10:55:02 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <64cb06472b332e0f9edbbe7455382ac1@coraid.com> (raw)
We're building a new product for Coraid to
complement the EtherDrive storage blades, and we had
to have a small amount of nvram. We have designed a small
printed circuit board that inserts into the IDE
connectors and has a small eeprom on it (32K). It's
NOT a Compact disk or anything else that looks like
an IDE device, but software can bit-bang the data
into and out of the eeprom. It struck me that
this would be useful for replacing the floppy
disk on CPU servers.
When we go into production on our device, would
anyone like some of the little goodies?
