      i think is embedded is right image?
      If i have 1G CF card, how can use all 1G, and not only 128M?
      and how system use all 1G space?

      if embedded is not right image, is CF card is good?
      because, system all the time write on card

        If you are installing onto a CF card the embedded is the right version for you since it never writes to the CF card except when you change the config.
        The embedded version does not need more then 128 MB, and there is no sense in using more (what for?).

        If you want to use packets (like snort or squid) you need the full version and then the CF is not the right medium to save your data.
        You could use a microsdrive (harddisk in CF format).
        Search the forum on which models to use (there seems to be some microdrive models which have problems).

        We do what we must, because we can.
