Hi, Jared.
I tested with a 1GB CF, and it works :)
Router#sh ver | i PCMCIA
1000944K bytes of ATA PCMCIA card at slot 0 (Sector size 512 bytes).
Router#dir disk0:
Directory of disk0:/
1 -rw- 23411756 Jan 11 2005 09:32:24 +00:00 rsp-pv-mz.123-11.T2.bin
1024491520 bytes total (1001078784 bytes free)

Hi,
I know this sounds stupid, but, since i don't have 32MB flashes, i'm
trying to find a way of loading a 22mb IOS image on a 7500 router.
Is there any way besides buying the 32MB one?
As long as the image in your bootflash: supports the
ATA filesystem, you can use a CF <-> PCMCIA adapter and stick a 128m
CF card in your slot0/slot1 (they become renamed disk0/disk1)
You will want to reformat it with IOS so you get the right
boot loader in there, but that should solve your situation for now.
Cisco does not recommend this configuration, but it will work,
and they will continue to support you, with the exception of flash failure :)
