[j-nsp] Will CF sizes other than 256M work ok?

[Joe McGuckin]

I've noticed recently that 256M CF cards seem to becoming obsolete. 512M was
the smallest I've seen in our local camera & electronics stores recently.

If I needed to pick up an emergency replacement for a failing CF card, would
a 512M card work ok? I think that partitioning and rebooting from the larger
card would work, but I wonder about a subsequent "request system snap" -
would that try to copy a 512M /root partition from the CF onto the existing
256M disk /altroot partition ?
