This is less of a LEAF than a hardware issue. If your DOMs behave like
an ordinary IDE disk then the question is how to connect them to a
standard system to write the software to them. I recall having had the
same issue once. I must admit, I just abandoned that DOM, seeing that
ordinary DOM's did cost a fraction of the price of the adapter. Unless
you really want to go that way, I would suggest to find a cheap IDE to
CF adapter. Compact Flash of small sizes can be found in heaps. Are you
sure you have a 2.5 inch interface and not a 1.8 inch which has 50 pins
and is typically female.

cheers
