yes they do but connected into another port.
When You want to boot from it, You have to put the card inside the computer - instead of the actual HDD.
Possibly You'd require a small adapter "small IDE=>CF".
If I recall.
The small IDE was the one present also in laptops.

An IDE adapter will be fine for booting, but it depends on the type and the card, but this one is fine for example: http://www.vesalia.de/e_sdide44adapter.htm smile
In my case I have an internal CF card that I boot from, and I use the SD PCMCIA adapter to transfer files (you can hot swap it like a floppy)

But I DO want to boot from the card! yikes
I thought these things worked just like a hard drive. Guess I'll find out.

iLKke: SD card for A1200? Strange. I have two cards for it but both are the CF ones.

Now I've got an a1200 again but I have yet to fit it with an SD card

I hope it will be repaired soon...

http://battleofthebits.org/arena/Entry/ … 00)/12010/
(Only "LISTEN" function works for the non-registered users, sorry).

Doesn't sounds _that_ bad after all. However the sound is audibly worse then 4channels indeed.

Also lack of the volumes was a bitch.

But it was fun anyway. wink

But for most cases i never used more than classic 4 channels (ingame music was 2 channel because 2 was used for sound effects), basically i composed something in ProTracker and then imported it to DB.
