Can you say what kind of cards they are? Manufacturer? Model?
good one is a Sandisk
broken 4GB is an ATP,
broken 16MB is unknown
FWIW, using fdisk xpert mode,
Ive tried setting CHS on 4GB disk to match those on Sandisk.
the new settings didnt take (I didnt forget the write)
Are CHS values on a CF typically read-only ?
is it hardwired into the disk-emulation ?
are there known limitations to the PC-BIOS
wrt CHS settings it understands ?
the soekris bios is advanced enough (1) to use logical sector addressing so
CHS is mostly irrelevant for soekris hardware.
Your problme is propably somewhere else in the bootstapping of linux.
(1) in contrast to alix stuff that uses CHS
