On my box it's not hde but actually /dev/sdaX that is the compact flash
device.
So to mount the device I type mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/disk
and it mounts. I also removed the line from fstab for auto mounting.
Mandrakes install creates it during install and since the command to
mount local file
hi,
if you are using lilo edit /etc/lilo.conf and remove the devfs from your
normal bootup
then run lilo as root
if you dont want to do that just boot failsafe

Sounds like you have USB adapter, we are using the pccard type that

Thanks, It works now. Failsafe boots the mandrake kernel and I need the
win4lin kernel so I needed to change lilo.conf.
Am I going to lose something by not running devfs?

I've just bought a pcmcia compactflash adapter and I can't get it to work on
my thinkpad with Mandrake 9. If I put the card in before turning the
computer on it freezes after saying:
Starting PCMCIA: cardmgr [1031]: socket 1: ata/ide fixed disk OK
Starting Portmapper OK

Try without devfs, and manually create the node in /dev (if it does not
create it on boot) see if you can acess it. I have CF adapter working
great on my mdk8.1 laptop

on the boot menu select failsafe I presume. Unless you have modified it.

does the CF work normally? perhaps its broken

The card is a normal CF card. It works in my pocket pc and digital camera.
The adapter works in windows.
When I booted into failsafe, I could mount the card. How do I get it to work
with my regular boot? Do I have to change something in the kernel?
