Yippieeee! It works...
Upgraded the kernel, booted the Empeg and then did this:

empeg:/# rw
empeg:/# mount -t msdos /dev/hdc1 /mnt/cf
empeg:/# ls -al /mnt/cf/dcim/122canon/
total 540
drwxrwxr-x 2 0 0 4096 Apr 21 2002 .
drwxrwxr-x 3 0 0 4096 Apr 21 2002 ..
-rwxrwxr-x 1 0 0 542521 Apr 21 2002 img_2260.jpg
empeg:/#

Thanks a lot for the kernel Trevor...

Now I will start coding a shell script to look for a CF card at boot and then copy and verify the images to the harddrive...

I don't hope that Drakino or Tony got too much work done with compiling the kernel now that you beat them to it

Thanks to everyone in this thread - and in the forum - for your support...

Nicolai
