It is not a kernel issue. The kernel I compiled for the 486, booted in
my pentium IV, is able to see the CF correctly.
My CF adapter is via IDE port, not USB port.
If my kernel lacked some module, it would not work on my Pentium IV...
Regards!

Does your kernel has support for USB devices?
If you can access usb devices, you should be
able to map a CF mounted on a USB card reader
with the loop device..
There is a program at my web site (see way below
for URL) called burnit. You can use it to create
or extract a filesystem from a CF, but if you run
'burnit -l', it will just query for the first USB
card reader mounted, that it can find. It might
also display some messages, to show what is missing
in your system ...

But i'm not sure this is what I need.. Does it have any

application to manage the flash, this is not a problem yes. My
problem is that my kernel does not see the compact flash. At
the moment I can see it, I will dump the FS to it and go on...

But can I use this SDK with my RedHat distribution to

Bueno, you could. But, you would have to replace the
structured component directories, which contain the burn
files, with RH versions, where applicable. Particularly you
would have to change the contents of slaketcs/i486 with
Redhat's boot (init.d) components. The bootstrap is also
set to use lilo, which might be a problem...

So I assume that if my adapter is attending to this

CF+Adapter on a Pentium IV, I am not having a
compatibility mode issue.
How can I make it work on a 486??? I think Linux
doesn't obbey to BIOS configuration for disk drives.
Anyhow tried with "auto" and with "user ->977/8/32"
setting. Nothing changed.
Thanks!

You might have better luck using our Embedded Slackware
on a CF. Slackware is an i486 distro. The SDK is
available for i486, uclibc_i486, pxa25x and
uclibc_pxa25x. The makeCF utility allows you to select
components etc. and creates the base bootstrapped CF
automatically. You will need the 3 (12MB, 10MB and
13MB) archives:
slakbootEBS-base+i486a
slakbootEBS-i486b
slakbootEBS-i486c
