No sol'n, but some ideas for further data points:

Both being new could be a bad thing.  If you have any "veteran" hardware
available, try testing with that.  For instance, does another 2GB CF card
boot reliably in the new 5501?  Does the CF card in question work well
with another reader, preferably another Soekris?

When you PXE boot, is the CF card visible to the OS?  If so, try to fsck
it, or run an md5 on the device, to give it a good thrashing.  Lather,
rinse, repeat.
