Thanks for being so patient with my denseness, Jason.

What I did on the ubuntu box with the CF in the reader:

sudo umount /media/disk
sudo fdisk /dev/sdc
(Created new partition with n, primary 1, then wrote with w)
sudo mkfs -t ext2 -v /dev/sdc1
(Remove and reinsert CompactFlash)
sudo tar -jxvf 
~/code/TS/7200/distributions/debian-sarge-256MB-05-01-2006.tar.bz2 -C 
/media/disk

I then placed the CF in the 7200.  On boot it got a little farther, but still 
errored out:

 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1
 /dev/ide/host0/bus0/target0/lun0: p1
EXT2-fs warning: mounting unchecked fs, running e2fsck is recommended
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).

modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.26-ts11/modules.dep (No 
such file or directory)

The device node /dev/sdcard0/disc0/part3 for the root filesystem is missing,
incorrect, or there is no entry for the root filesystem
listed in /etc/fstab.

The system is also unable to create a temporary node in
/dev/shm to use as a work-around.

This means you have to fix this manually.

CONTROL-D will exit from this shell and REBOOT the system.

(or type Control-D to continue):

If I look at /etc/fstab:

# cat /etc/fstab
proc             /proc         proc    defaults                 0    0
none            /dev/pts        devpts        gid=5,mode=620    0 0
/dev/sdcard0/disc0/part3        /       ext2    defaults,noatime,sync   1 1 

Compared to the /etc/fstab of the working CF:

:root# cat /etc/fstab
proc             /proc         proc    defaults                 0    0
none            /dev/pts        devpts        gid=5,mode=620    0 0
/dev/hda1       /       ext2    defaults        1 1 

However, if I make that change, and reboot, I still get this message:

modprobe: Can't open dependencies file /lib/modules/2.4.26-ts11/modules.dep (No 
such file or directory)

Sure enough, there was no ..-ts11 file in modules, only a ts-10 one.

Any idea how to get modules/2.4.26-ts11/modules.dep?  And is this the way I 
should go about setting up a CF for debian?

Again, many TIA,
Craig
