Question: Compact Flash on single-board computers

I'm new to PCMCIA and CompactFlash. I will be using an Advantech PCM-5820 SBC (single-board computer) to implement a small router using LRP. I have found other folks who have accomplished this task using other models of SBC's from the company. Now, to my question. The 5820 has a CompactFlash slot. How can I determine if I can use a SanDisk (or M-Systems or similar) CompactFlash card in this slot as a bootable device under Linux? I understand that CompactFlash is 100% compatible with the PC Card ATA standard, so would I simply use the PCMCIA package's ide_cs driver? Thanks smckown@ctea.com
