Interestingly enough, there is a platform option for the IDE driver as well (CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PLATFORM): could it be the a better way to drive the CF card in true IDE mode? I must be missing something very basic, but can't get over this hurdle: if I enable PATA platofrm, and define the card local bus/card in the dts file, the card gets detected and properly recognized, but no device seems to be created in /dev, so the card does not get mounted when the board comes up. If I enable CONFIG_BLK_DEV_PLATFORM instead (and no dts file definitions), I can't get the probe function to be invoked, so the card does not even get detected. People, does anyone have CF card up and running in 2.6.25 - please, share your secrets! :-) Seriously, it is quite frustrating, I would really appreciate any extra hints, TIA, vadim > Rob > -- > "One of my most productive days was throwing away 1000 lines of code." > - Ken Thompson. > -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-embedded" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
