CF as IDE with pata_via or VIA_IDE fails on lexar CF

Hi, I followed the discussion on this list about people with CF as IDE problems, eg: http://www.mail-archive.com/linux-ide@vger.kernel.org/msg07402.html I was using Lexar Premium 80x 512MB cards on a VIA VT823x chipset (both on a VIA cpu and an P4 board), and they also fail to boot linux. What

no data with HDIO_DRIVE_TASK

HI, I have a question. The HDIO_DRIVE_TASK can not return data on the PIO or DMA protocol ? Only the HDIO_DRIVE_CMD and HDIO_DRIVE_TASKFILE can do that ? Because HDIO_DRIVE_TASK with the WIN_IDENTIFY command for example returns 0, so ioctl was executed successful, but no data can be found in the
