I'm interested in using a DiskOnchip or similar device to store the linux boot/root partition. The filesystem will change only infrequently, so the flash speed/wear is not an issue.

So far, all diskless linux solutions i've seen so far have been net-boot solutions, relying on a minimal local HD or floppy, so they aren't truly diskless.
