I am working right now on an article for Circuit Cellar, about this specific
project.  It's going to include a simple schematic for the interface, and
code for read/write routines.  I was able to get all the information about
how to do this from the CompactFlash specification, which I saw someone
posted a link to on the list within the last few days.
As far as the FAT16 and FAT32 file systems, all my knowledge came from
others' on the net.  Again, within the last few days, someone posted a link
to a FAT specification from Microsoft, which is the same document I used to
get the majority of the information I needed to figure it out.
