Yes, it's strange:

1. After running gunzip, the partition takes the whole 1GB instead of the 
128MB or so I expected
2. mount fails:
# fdisk -l /dev/sdd

Disk /dev/sdd: 1024 MB, 1024966656 bytes
32 heads, 63 sectors/track, 993 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2016 * 512 = 1032192 bytes

    Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdd1   *           1         125      125968+   6  FAT16

# mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/cf
mount: special device /dev/sdd1 does not exist

# mount -t vfat /dev/sdd1 /mnt/cf
mount: special device /dev/sdd1 does not exist

=========

To check that I'm not doing something wrong:
$ cd astinux-trunk
<the steps required to configure>
$ make
$ exit
# cd /tmp
# wget http://www.djhsolutions.com/astlinux/runnix.img.gz
# fdisk /dev/sdd, and remove any partition on the CF card
# gunzip -c runnix.img.gz | dd of=/dev/sdd bs=16k
# fdisk -l /dev/sdd, and check that there's a partition on sdd1
# mkdir /mnt/cf
# mount /dev/sdd1 /mnt/cf

Can you spot something wrong?

Thanks.
