OK, thats a different issue than the cold-boot issue the original
poster I think was describing.
Is this with FreeBSD that you are still seeing this problem ? One
thing I found that causes less confusion on the Soekris and FreeBSD
booting is to make sure
options ATA_STATIC_ID # Static device numbering
is NOT in the kernel config. Removing that helped with some of the
troubled CFs causing boot issues. However, all of the CFs available
from my supplier today (Lexar, Transcend, Kingston and Sandisk)
havent shown me any issues.
