Hmmm.  I recompiled my kernel to make sure I got IDE_CS support in
there, but I don't think it's working.  When I try to mount the drive, I
get the following:  (I think hdc would be it...hda=hard drive, hdb=CD).

merlin:/home/dave# mount -t msdos /dev/hdc /mnt/sandisk/
mount: block device /dev/hdc is write-protected, mounting read-only
mount: No medium found

This is with the media in the PCMCIA adapter, in the slot.  (I did
notice I got the high-low beep sequence when I inserted the card, rather
than the high-high.)

Am I correct in assuming the ide_cs.o driver mentioned is the same one
enabled by CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IDECS in the config file?  If so, I must be
missing something, because I have that option turned on (Y).
