I also tried 2.6.24-rc4 with the older not-libata PATA drivers and it is broken. dmesg had a line about the CF card detected as hda, but /sys/block did not have hda and /dev/hda did not function. I will try the patches you mentioned, but I think I may also have to work backward through kernel versions until I find the last one where the PCMCIA hd{a,b,c,d,e} drivers worked. -- Zan Lynx <zlynx@xxxxxxx>
