Re: Intimate on PCMCIA card

Installing gcc onto familiar was my first idea. But it takes up so much room.

I want to use gcc, but only when the drive is in the slot. Can I automount
applications?

I looked for a switch on ipkg to install to a particular location, but found
nothing that seemed suitable.

If you or anyone could give me directions as to how to acheive this, that would
be great. I would like to perform this not only for gcc, but for other
applications as well, like java and mpeg4 applications, therefore keeping my
iPaq free for applications that I need when my iPaq is in my pocket. :-)

Cheers,
Tudor.
