Neodio CompactFlash Cardreader on Linux

Introduction

The The Neodio or Lead Data USB Compact Flash reader/writer is an USB storage device for reading CompactFlash cards. It needs some special initialization code to work properly in Linux 2.4 kernels. This kernel patch provides it. It should work with all 2.4 kernels, though it has been tested only with 2.4.19 and later. Offsets may be a bit off, but it should apply cleanly. 2.6 kernels do not need this patch, as they handle the Neodio correctly without help.

Using the patches

When a kernel is compiled with this patch enabled, it will automatically recognize the card reader/writer. Just access (mount) it as any other USB storage device.
