What have you done with 512M CFDisk?
As bought it will have one partition defined and formatted as some MSDOS
filesystem. You need to put an ext2 file system on it.

Use fdisk to check the partition state, if the device is /dev/hda, then

 fdisk -l /dev/hda

and then use

  mkfs -t ext2 /dev/hda1......

to put an ext2 filesystem on the partition.
