...if you're using Solaris.  While I'm not, NetBSD does seem to grok
PCMCIA disk on my laptop, so it ought to be feasible.

I haven't managed to get support for the Voyager PCMCIA slots
backported yet, so I can't use them now.  I'll certainly keep this in
mind for if-&-when I do.

It's an idea I hadn't thought of; thank you very much for mentioning it.
