Correct me > if I am wrong. If you are in trueide mode the device behaves as an IDE disk, so you will need a driver for whatever ATA controller is being used. If you are in PCMCIA mode then you only get PIO0 and the pata_pcmcia driver drives the CF card with the CF card acting as a PCMCIA ATA controller Alan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ide" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
