Re: [Linux-7110-psion] Mounting Compact Flash

[Justin D. <ju...@su...>]

What CF card are you using.  I used a CF card that was recognized, but the
setup did not work, and I got the same error.  There is a check in the CF
init code that does not work for all cards, I got around this by editing
the code and recompiling the kernel.  It was a dirty hack, but it worked
:)
