could you try this patch?

This patch did not appear to change anything.

Without this patch, you can't use it without irq.

Can you check if the CF will work w/o IRQs? To try it:

Your directions did result in progress:

I still need to figure out what I may be doing wrong here, but wanted to
post the results I have so far in case they are useful.

The CF card seems to work fine. See if your kernel supports vfat by

# cat /proc/filesystems

Of course, you need to mount /proc properly first. If your kernel
doesn't support vfat, make it support.

Or you can insert a blank CF card and play with it (ext2, etc)
