[OB] Installing a CF in an Omnibook 425 or 430

Well, I'm not too eager to be shipping my ROM cards
around - without them, I would just have a paperweight.
 
But if someone can give me instructions on how
to use a Linux system to dump their contents, I'd
be happy to try to dump them and make the  file 
available.
 
Of course, there would then have to be some way 
to copy the files back to a linerar flash card.
 
Has the person who dumped the OB-425 card been
successful in creating a card that actually
worked in a OB?  I don't think I've actually
read of someone being successful with this.
 
Any of the System Cards are usable in any of the
OB-300/425/430.  I've tried the 425 and the 430 
cards in the 300 and they worked fine.
 
Bill

Also for bjunk.

Could the 300 system card be made available in the same form?
Does anyone know whether other system cards would be usable on the 300?
