I suspect that the disk is either 1.) not formatted as native Mac disk or
2.) you have not chosen it as the startup disk or 3.) it does not have a sufficient
system on it to start up. Could it be one of these problems. I've done startups
from compact flash for quite a while on a PB 520 and it is smooth, sweet, and swift.
