A while ago I had a couple of 4801s that wouldn't boot using GRUB, but were happy with LILO. I couldn't see any reason why - the CF worked with GRUB in other 4801s so it was just one of those things. Jonathon

What's your experience? I have a 4801 that seems incredibly fussy about which CF card I use with it. No so for any of my 5501-60's or -70's of which we have several in service. With the majority of CF cards on the 4801 (both name-brand and generic) there seems to be corruption of system files either immediately (won't boot & error messages on a brand new image) or over time - develops problems - error messages & functional anomalies. I would like to know if others on this list have experienced similar behavior, or whether my board's just a good old-fashioned lemon. Am I failing to follow some arcane list of compatible CF cards? Any input is much appreciated. -Karl
