pcmcia question

Hi all.

I have a 128m compact flash memory card, which is inserted into a
compact flash to pcmcia adapter. When I plug the whole thing into the
pc-card slot, it just tells me that pc card is inserted, and that's
it.

Under windblows, the same card showed up as a standard removable hd on
a standard ide controller when the card was inserted. Therefore, I
suspect that this should show up as a /dev/hdx device under gnu/linux,
but then the ide code in linux isn't hot-pluggable as far as I
know. Also, I do know for a fact that the pc-card socket does work,
since I'm able to use a pcmcia network card in it just fine.

Does anyone have ideas on what I need to do to get this working?
Thanks in advance.

Greg
