Sandisk 256MB Compact Flash (SDCFH-256) hangs on access (2.4.26)

[Brian Beattie]

If there is a better forum for this question, please let me know.

I'm running Debian Sarge/2.4.26-1-i686-smp, trying to access this
compact flash using a CF/IDE adapter from ACS (ACS-CF-IDEToCFA).  This
works fine for every other CF I have tried (128 and 64).  I have a
number of these parts and they all act the same and they work fine in an
PCMCIA/CF adapter and a USB CF reader.   I have set up what I think is
the simplest case, I have run fdisk and mkfs on another machine using
the PCMCIA adapter.

When I try to mount the CF it hangs and I start getting "lost
interrupt",  does anybody have experience or clues that might help me?
