The Apple SCSI cards tend to be able to find the first partition
nearly any volume from any other SCSI card, regardless of partitioning
scheme or lack there of.  The CF card mounting is in reality no
different.

I think this stems from the backwards compatibility of the Rev A & B
ROMs and that they did not use Inside Mac V for their partitioning
standard. But any drive formatted on an earlier SCSI card revision at
least booted on the Rev. C and AHS SCSI.
