I've been having some problems with a net5501 (BIOS 1.33) and a new CF (8GB SanDisk Ultra II), it seems to be related to something described on the list in November: http://lists.soekris.com/pipermail/soekris-tech/2009-November/016162.html
With the newer card, when flash=primary is set the sata drive is never detected. When I use an older SanDisk card its detected every time. I've also tried a couple of different sata drives and that doesn't seem to make a difference. I can set flash=secondary, and the sata drive works fine as the primary - however I can't deploy this in our setup. My initial thought, given SanDisks good reputation was that these must be counterfeit cards. However I know the cards are genuine as we obtained them from a SanDisk distributor. Its a bit of a pain as we've already bought a large quantity of cards on the basis that SanDisk are recommended by Soekris. Is there a possibility of a BIOS or other work around? I don't really want to have to replace all these CF cards!
