To save bandwidth a brief description of the issue follows in the event this is the appropriate list. A CF socket is hooked up to the Expansion Bus on a custom IXP425 based board. The board is wired identical to a IXDP425 with the exception of a few additional items and less flash/sdram. Most everything seems to work ok with the exception of writes to the CF. Identify works correctly, fdisk, mke2fs, etc. Writing to the card works..but the data is corrupted. If a file is copied to the CF on another machine, the file is fine when the CF is used on the IXP board. After successfully copying a file to the CF on the IXP board the file size reports correct but a md5sum on it differs from the original file. Looking at a diff of the data of the original file and the file on the CF I see every 512 bytes, byte number 511 contains the value of byte 512 and byte 512 is 0 on the bad file. A current copy of the driver can be found at http://avila.cc0.net/avila-ide.c Thanks for any assistance or pointers to an appropriate mailing list if this one is not. -Dave
