I guess I should explain this a little better. If I read from /dev/sda, the kernel will detect that the CF card is there and create the partition and things like that. At that point the kernel knows about an sda1 while udev does not create it. So in any case it looks like udev is not creating sda1 when it should have, and I doubt that it's going to work properly with any hardware.
