Full "External Bus Interface" section from AT91 spec is important,
because is describe how SMC works internally in CF True IDE mode.

Correct. Also t0 = t1 + t2 + t9 relation must be true.

You can setup that, but they need to have proper relations with NRD.

No, NCS and NRD are different signals, waveforms are different (if configured
differently in SMC controller).

Well, they are different signals but connected together. All of these are
controlled by NCS: CFCE1 (CS1), CFCE2 (CS2), CFRNW (DIR), CFCS0 (OE)
if SMC is configured in True IDE mode.
