We thought about that, but you'd need
to incorporate it into the CFFA ROM and
revise the partitioning code to create
as many 400K chunks on the CF card as
you would need/want. It is feasible, but
would it be practical, being many of the
DOS 3.3 disks require the disk in place
and lots of the more desirable software
disks are protected.
