Yes I' ve TS-7000 series with CF card slot and already
load with Kingston CF card on it. From dmesg I got an
error when TS board recognise CF card. Here is my
dmesg :

**************************************
...
hda: KINGSTON, ATA DISK drive

**************************************

When I used df for CF card, they tell me if I already
used 13% of capacity from 256 MB total capacity. But
when I mount, it's only lost-found folder. Nothing
more. So, what is 13% is? It's debian linux on CF
card? But why I cannot see it?

One more. How to use RedBoot? When I enter Ctrl+C
within one second after power up, I dont get any
messege.
