This gets unpacked from target/device/net5501/target_skeleton/boot/grub/grub.conf You may experience other problems with these cheap compact flash cards so you might want to just invest in some decent SanDisk or Transcend cards which are known to work well. I've tried the following brands of media with poor performance. Kingston (not even recognized) PNY Patriot I now have several 1GB cards that work well in my Canon DSLR camera. With the negligible difference in cost, just buy Sandisk or Transcend.
