What I used for 680 is documented at:

    http://mail-index.netbsd.org/port-hpcsh/2002/06/18/0000.html

Basicly, when you partition your CF with fdisk, make a small FAT fs.

. you can store hpcboot.exe and the kernel on it

. you can store your wince backup on it

. wince won't be prompting you to reformat the CF every time you
  insert it
