I have altered the sd.c file by patching sd_probe to check for the
particular unit I have and accepting pdt 03h (Processor) as a valid
return and the unit works fine. 

I suspect the sd file is considered very important though (and I don't
know how many of these card readers exist) so I assume a patch is not
required ;-). Would there be another approach to creating a "driver" for
my Spyrus RD300 in it's guise as a card reader?
