Do you have two cards here ?

I've seen this as well, on an ancient 4MB card. I'm pretty sure the
-CSEL signal on my test board is incorrectly routed, so I thought it
was because of that. I'll try to strap it tomorrow and see if it
really is the cause of the problem.

Your card should work with the current -mm driver although not entirely
for the right reasons. Given you have such a marvellously buggy set of
hardware can I send you some test patches to try ?

In my current pile of four CF cards, it looks like three of them are
buggy, although in slightly different ways. I'd be happy to test a few
patches.
