I assume you mean you are using a CF card with a PCMCIA adapter? My initial intuition The H8000 is very picky about the formats of the CF card; we recommend only using the format that the card is programmed with out of the box (FAT16, with certain flags set), but most OS’s don’t support FAT16 formatting easily. I would suggest trying a tool like gparted (https://gparted.org/ ) to format the drive as FAT16. Note: that tool will just as happily format your hard drive, so exercise care.
