I do something similar, although I found that not all compact flash cards work. I have one which I cannot mount. When I insert it, I get the message: pccardd[110]: Card "CF"("032MB") [] [(null)] has function ID 4 (I just tired it on a system running 4.3-STABLE as of May 7). Someday I'll dig through the source to see what this means. My three other CF cards all work fine. The morals? + Learn to write entries for /etc/pccard.conf; every one of my CF cards is different, even the two sold by the same company. + Just because you can't get one card to work doesn't mean they all won't work. Using a PCMCIA adaptor with the CF is really the way to go. -- Kenneth Ingham ingham@i-pi.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
