I have gentoo 2.6.9 on an HP Pavilion zx5000 and when I come to install a compact flash card i can't work out how to mount it.

The system recognises the card is there cardctrl ident gives

Code:
Socket 0:
  product info: "DEM ATA Flash            ", "STORM  ", "STBM2"
  manfid: 0x0000, 0x0000
  function: 4 (fixed disk)
Socket 1:
  no product info available


I would expect a /dev/hde entry or something similar but I get nothing. Any advice please?

Do you have ide support enabled for pcmcia? I had the similar problem which corrected by compiling the kernel with following options

Code:

  Device Drivers --->
    ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support --->
      <*> PCMCIA IDE support
