Tried "yenta_socket.bios_override=1" and it made no difference. And I was 
mistaken, booting with the device inserted does not make it work. 
 
Have also tried a Toshiba 5Gb drive. Although this is recognised it is not 
read / writable and df reports about 340K free even though the disk is 
completely empty. 
 
Now the strange bit. A Toshiba 2Gb and an unbadged 340Mb disk both work fine. 
The disk in the caddy is a 20Gb. So is it a size issue ?  
 
The 5Gb, 2Gb and 340Mb disk and "propper" PCMCIA disks in that they are 
complete units, whereas mine is a 2.5" disk in a caddy. But then the 5Gb 
doesn't work either, but then again it fails in a different way to mine in the 
caddy !!!
