Hi cbagger01,
                   The CF drive's device name is /dev/hda1. The name was showed on the screen when I booted up with the CF drive. The system message was:
Accessing KNOPPIX CDROM at /dev/hda1...
Thanks.

Hi roberts,
             I am so sorry. I don't know what is the frugal_instal.sh. How to obtain this file and use? Can you describe more detail for me. Thanks.

If you have a system that can boot from the cd with flash installed as /dev/hda then this is what I do:

Boot from the cd then at the boot prompt: dsl 2
Then at the system prompt type: frugal_instal.sh then follow the prompts.

I run several CF based systems.  One system that boots to level 2 with sshd and toram. others boot to desktop. Newer ones boot with desktop plus extensions all are CF based using frugal_instal.sh Try it. Good Luck.
