I found my CF to IDE adapter and gave the dd thing another whirl.
Heres the results:
wombat:/proc/ide/hdc# cat model
SST48CF008C-2A CompactFlash Memory Card
wombat:/proc/ide/hdc# cat capacity
15680
wombat:/proc/ide/hdc# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hdc count=15680
hdc: read_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=0,
sector=1
end_request: I/O error, dev 16:00 (hdc), sector 1
unable to read partition table
hdc: read_intr: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hdc: read_intr: error=0x40 { UncorrectableError }, LBAsect=0,
sector=1
end_request: I/O error, dev 16:00 (hdc), sector 1
dd: /dev/hdc: Input/output error
1+0 records in
0+0 records out
So I was a little off about the device not being recognized but the
end result is the same. The IDE driver trys to extract some type of
info from the partition table and chokes on it.
