Hey Charles!

I have one (M-Systems) with a missing pin that waas the root/boot for one of
the few "ttylinux of the 21st century" thingy I was playing with 20 some odd
years ago.  Speaking of which, what about the disk-on-module?  I had a couple
server motherboards that had that interface but never bothered.  If I am not
mistaken it was one of Intel's ideas.

I beg to differ;

# file -b dd
ELF 64-bit LSB pie executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked,
interpreter /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2, for GNU/Linux 4.9.0, stripped

 CB> the real size is 16744 bytes

18680 bytes for a 64-bit version.  It isn't from coreutils though.  ;-)

Life is good,
