Has anyone successfully booted the 7200 off the CF card?

>From the configuration, it appears that CF cards are only supported as
PCMCIA cards.  From what I understand, that's OK, so I have all of
that set up and built into the kernel.  But I keep getting:

RedBoot> load -r -b 0x00218000 -m disk hda1:/boot/zImage
Raw file loaded 0x00218000-0x0038c76f, assumed entry at 0x00218000
RedBoot> exec -c "root=/dev/hda1 console=ttyAM0,115200"
Using base address 0x00218000 and length 0x00174770
Uncompressing Linux..
......
VFS: Cannot open root device "hda1" or unknown-block(2,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available
partitions:
1f00       6272 mtdblock0 (driver?)
1f01        256 mtdblock1 (driver?)
1f02       1408 mtdblock2 (driver?)
1f03          4 mtdblock3 (driver?)
1f04        128 mtdblock4 (driver?)
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on
unknown-block(2,0)

Are CF cards in 2.6 SCSI devices, like SD cards?
