Great! However, please let me ask: is the media different from what the
existing drivers "ide-cs" or "memory-cs/pcmciamtd"  can provide for?

The best starting point is probably the source code .. then, IIRC, David
Hinds has written lots of documentation for the 2.4. PCMCIA device drivers
interface -- for the changes needed for 2.6., check
http://www.lwn.net/Articles/driver-porting/ and, specifically for PCMCIA
changes, Documentation/pcmcia/driver-changes.txt in the Linux kernel source
tree.

And whenever you get stuck -- ask on this list, such specific questions are
(usually) easier to answer than the question you asked a week and a half ago
;-)

Thanks,
