Sanjay,

It appears you are doing everything correctly. If your CF was probed
successfully in RB you will be able to see it using the disks
command..if
you cannot see it using disks you won't be able to load anything off it.

I recall there were some timing related issues in RB 2.01 for certain
slow
CFs...which prompted an update to RB 2.02.

I would recommend either trying an alternate CF or flashing your Avila
with
the latest RB. You can get the latest binary at:

http://gateworks.unixstudios.net/BSP/GW15002_Rev_0.6/JTAG%20Software%20and%2
0Images/

Use a RB binary from there appropriate to the memory size of your Avila.

Thanks!

-Dave
