You might want to check if that CF card is still in running order. I ran
into some problems on some CF cards just being fried after a few years.

The kernel and packages have evolved some. It looks like kernel 2.6 is
at the doorsteps, but then...

I usually just build a new CF and change it, so I can always go back to
the previous release. Another way is to build a CF with double boot, so
you can jump back and forth between two versions.

I am using grub as boot loader, which makes this kind of operation very
easy.
