On startup, the first thing a thumb drive or CompactFlash card does is
read the extra 16 bytes from every sector and build a translation map,
so when a request for a given logical sector comes in, it knows where
to find it.  Note that there are more sectors on the ROM than on the
hard drive it emulates, so there's always some spare space.
Hello,

some time ago I tried to find any documentation about CF internals, but failed. It seems like you may hint me where to find it, may you?
