[LinuxBIOS] Problems booting off Epia MII compact flash (filo)

Hi all,

I'm working on my first LinuxBios install on a Via Epia MII 12000 and am 
having some problems with filo. I seem to have everything built mostly 
correct, as I'm able to get to the filo boot prompt and invoke memtest86 
(with VGA) from an iso9660 fs on hdc. When trying to boot off of the 
onboard CF (hde) I get the following error:

boot: hde1:/bzImage console=ttyS0,115200
malloc_diag: alloc: 368 bytes (5 blocks), free: 16008 bytes (1 blocks)
malloc_diag: alloc: 384 bytes (6 blocks), free: 15992 bytes (1 blocks)
file_open: dev=hde1, path=/bzImage
find_ide_controller: PCI IDE #1 not found
IDE channel 2 not found
devopen: failed to open ide
malloc_diag: alloc: 368 bytes (5 blocks), free: 16008 bytes (1 blocks)
malloc_diag: alloc: 320 bytes (4 blocks), free: 16056 bytes (1 blocks)
boot: hde1:/bzImage console=ttyS0,115200

My filo Config and a complete debug log is attached. I suspect that my 
problem is with my filo build rather than linuxbios, though I've checked 
my config against all the examples and documentation I could find, and 
nothing jumps out at me. I'm running filo r32 and linuxbios r2567. 
Anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

John
