Mounting an ATA Sandisk (PCMCIA)

Hello, I am trying to set up a new laptop and have 2 PCMCIA Sandisks that
currently have QNX loaded on them. There are files that I would like to get
off of them and one I would like to convert to Windows 98. Does anyone know
how I can do this? Any help would be appreciated.

I done this with a Sandisk that plugged into a PCMCIA adapter.
There are basically two steps.

  1. Get the card recognized by the PCMCIA software

  2. Start a driver

I don’t remember the first step being very tricky,
but I’ve done a lot with PCMCIA cards. What
seemed to work best for 2) was to use the Fsys.ata
driver with hard coded parameters for interrupt
and base port.
