Hello all... I've got a PC104 with 16MB chipdisk ide-compatible flash
disk that I'm trying to make boot.  The original plan was to hold compressed
ramdisk on the flash, and run the rt system and module with ramdisk as the
rootfs.  The rest of the flash would be for logging data alone.  The problem is
that I'm not sure just how "compatible" this IDE drive is.  As I'm trying these
different boot schemes (currently kernel and minimal rootfs directly on
/dev/hda1 flash disk), the kernel loads, but then spits out:

hda: hda1
hdb: hdb1 hdb2 (the development HD with full linux install)
hda: hda1
hda: drive_ccmd: status=0x51 { DriveReady SeekComplete Error }
hda: drive_cmd: error=0x04 { DriveStatusError }
 hda: hda1
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly
Freeing unused kernel memory: 28k freed
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
Kernel panic: No init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel

... but /dev/tty0-8 and /sbin/init are in place on this filesystem as they are
supposed to.  Any ideas on if these funky seek errors are to blame?  I've
already tried the "hda=slow' kernel option at bootup, but same thing.

Thanks in advance,
-Cory
