OK.  Did that.  Now when I start up, here is what I get in my 
/var/log/messages:

Mar 24 15:19:42 mebius kernel: cs: memory probe 0xa0000000-0xa0ffffff: 
clean.
Mar 24 15:19:43 mebius kernel: RegisterClient: Out of resource
Mar 24 15:19:43 mebius kernel: ds: unable to create instance of 'ide-cs'!
Mar 24 15:19:43 mebius lpd[253]: restarted
Mar 24 15:23:13 mebius kernel: RegisterClient: Out of resource
Mar 24 15:23:13 mebius kernel: ds: unable to create instance of 'ide-cs'!

And here's what I get in my /var/log/daemon.log when I insert the cf card:

Mar 24 15:32:14 mebius cardmgr[225]: socket 0: ATA/IDE Fixed Disk
Mar 24 15:32:14 mebius cardmgr[225]: executing: 'modprobe ide-cs'
Mar 24 15:32:14 mebius cardmgr[225]: bind 'ide-cs' to socket 0 failed: 
No such device

What does this mean?

TIA
