In my opinion there are several problems in using CF in removable mode.
First of all, if you need it, you can't have pagefile.
Hmmm, creating a pagefile on a CF doesn't sound as a good idea anyway.
You cannot partition
the drive so you can't setup an OS partition and a "data" partition and
protect only the first one with EWF.
Probably fdisk can't do that (as well as a lot of other things), but I
don't see any technical reason to make it impossible. IIRC the partition
editor of Drivesnapshot can do that, but I should check.
