I finally bought SanDisk "SDCFJ-1024" CF card and it worked just fine! I managed to install install-media-10.4R3.4-export.
Just for information, if I insert this "SDCFJ-1024" CF into my Linux machine, following data is logged into kernel message buffer: root@ubuntu:~# uname -srv Linux 2.6.28-11-generic #42-Ubuntu SMP Fri Apr 17 01:57:59 UTC 2009 root@ubuntu:~# tail -n0 -f /var/log/messages Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5728.868102] pcmcia_socket pcmcia_socket0: pccard: PCMCIA card inserted into slot 0 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5728.868591] pcmcia 0.0: pcmcia: registering new device pcmcia0.0 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5728.909335] scsi8 : pata_pcmcia Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5728.909446] ata9: PATA max PIO0 cmd 0xa100 ctl 0xa10e irq 3 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.065825] ata9.00: CFA: SanDisk SDCFJ-1024, HDX 4.32, max PIO4 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.065832] ata9.00: 2001888 sectors, multi 0: LBA Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.066667] ata9.00: configured for PIO0 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.068277] ata9.00: configured for PIO0 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.068285] ata9: EH complete Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.069775] scsi 8:0:0:0: Direct-Access ATA SanDisk SDCFJ-10 HDX PQ: 0 ANSI: 5 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.069993] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] 2001888 512-byte hardware sectors: (1.02 GB/977 MiB) Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.070029] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.070093] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.070284] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] 2001888 512-byte hardware sectors: (1.02 GB/977 MiB) Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.070317] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] Write Protect is off Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.070378] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] Write cache: disabled, read cache: enabled, doesn't support DPO or FUA Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.070385] sdb: sdb1 sdb2 Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.081398] sd 8:0:0:0: [sdb] Attached SCSI removable disk Mar 23 09:51:28 ubuntu kernel: [ 5729.081511] sd 8:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg2 type 0 ^C root@ubuntu:~# ..and under JUNOS I'm able to see following information once the CF is inserted: cbb_power: 3V cbb0: bad Vcc request. ctrl=0x400, status=0x30000b10 cbb_power: 0V cbb0: bad Vcc request. ctrl=0x433, status=0x30000b59 cbb_power: 3V ata2: <SanDisk SDP> at port 0x100-0x10f irq 15 function 0 config 1 on pccard0 ad3: Device does not support APM ad3: 977MB <SanDisk SDCFJ-1024 HDX 4.32> at ata2-master PIO4 Jonas Frey, if you will make a list of working CF cards into juniper.cluepon.net wiki, you can certainly add SDCFJ-1024 as a working one and blacklist the SSD-C01G-3596 :) However, thank you all for support! regards, martin 2011/2/21 <ha...@t-systems.com>: > Hi Martin, > > i have SDCFJ-2048 running on RE-2.0 and RE-5.0 since two years.
