I'm 'lucky' I only use my CF reader with ATA devices then... My long term goal was to use SCSI disks in my home desktop, so thanks for the headsup when I'm able to do that... I think this bug should be fixed, but I'm guessing it will be kind of hard to devise a 'device probe order', or is this already in the kernel? --Stijn -- If today is the first day of the rest of your life, what the hell was yesterday?
