on the boot menu select failsafe I presume. Unless you have modified it.

Or rebuild your own kernel etc.

Is it a standard CF card? or an IBM microdrive?

does the CF work normally? perhaps its broken

Try without devfs, and manually create the node in /dev (if it does not
create it on boot) see if you can acess it. I have CF adapter working
great on my mdk8.1 laptop

I've just bought a pcmcia compactflash adapter and I can't get it to work
on my thinkpad with Mandrake 9.  If I put the card in before turning the
computer on it freezes after saying:

Starting PCMCIA: cardmgr [1031]: socket 1: ata/ide fixed disk  OK
Starting Portmapper OK
Starting System Logger: cardmgr [1021] executing : :/ide start hde'
Failed Starting kernel logger OK
Starting partmon

If I put the card in after booting I get:

Oct 23 21:54:37 ******* kernel: VFS: Disk change detected on device 21:00
Oct 23 21:54:37 ******* kernel:  /dev/ide/host2/bus0/target0/lun0: p1
Oct 23 21:54:37 ******* kernel: devfs_do_symlink(disc0): could not append
to parent, err: -17
in /var/log/syslog where ***** is the computer name

If I try and run hardrake or mount hbe it freezes

Any ideas
