From the project

Rear-accessible XT-CF Bootable 8-bit ISA CompactFlash - no bracket machining required

Monotech XT-CF Rev1.0 ReadMe ----------------------------

8-bit ISA CompactFlash interface + Boot ROM (two separate functions that can be used individually).

Documentation for the switches can be found on the rear silkscreen.

Credit: ------- Design uses schematic from Sergey Kiselev, with a few small changes to switches, 32K ROM support, and PCB from scratch to suit my brackets.\ www.malinov.com/Home/sergeys-projects/xt-cf-lite
