Strictly speaking on compatibility, I think it's safe to say that if your BIOS recognizes the drive at boot up (most will report the primary master, primary slave, secondary master, etc, etc), that Linux will work just fine with. As far as MMC-compliant, I would assume they all are, but could be wrong... Regards Hall
