Mounting a CF card

[Joe Villari]

Ok Jim

I've just looked over my notes and I had to recompile my kernel to get 
the ide-cs working. It's not that big of a deal. You don't need extra 
disk space or anything. Just follow the howto from the ydl support 
pages. Basically you run make menuconfig and it will prompt you through 
the whole thing. Just pay attention to what you are doing and you'll be 
fine.
