Phil's input pretty much follows my experience with CF cards.
I was referring to using 'linux expert' to start the installer which
will allow devices which should recognize and allow installation on
devices which do not show when using the default installer start method.
I tried this for USB hard disks so figured it might work for other
devices also.
Unfortunately I don't have that machine in front of me at the moment.
But I hope I remember it right that the CF card was detected in UDMA
mode.
And I use a CF-IDE adapter, not a PCMCIA card or some other card
reader. So it *should* work as a plain IDE HDD. But for some reason
installer doesn't detect it...
With Phil's posting, removable drive may rely on the controller in the
cards. I don't really know.
Alan's question and suggestion might lead somewhere. Hit an miss it
seems to be with those devices.
Thanks!
