2008-11-27 Thread Michael Grollman
Something that solved similar problems for me, and that might be easy to try at least, is adding ide=nodma to the end your grub kernel start line. It seems that some CF drives have trouble keeping up with certain more modern brands of CF, and turning off the dma seems to help in some of these

Does anyone know which (if any) of the 2.6.x pre-made voyage kernels include usbserial module in their default build? I know serial_cs is a pretty new test thing, but I wonder if the usbserial might already have been in their for a while, to support things like the PC5220. -Original
