hmmm...
Something you've said twigs with my setup. I have had a partition slip come
up for the card before, but followed by errors, when inserting it in the
same slot that is usually occupied by my 3Com card.
However, I just tried the procedure you describe below with no luck.
Are you using the RC1 release?

hi blair --
i also get a -10059 with my 'Mr. Flash' smartmedia adapter and
olympus-branded cards and have developed a work-around that seems to be
100%.
first of all, if i start the newt with the card in, everything seems to
be fine. however, if i remove the card (either the sm card or the
pcmcia adapter) i get a -10059 every time i reinsert it (or a different
sm card).
in frustration, i popped my ethernet card into the same socket the
memory card had been in. my lucent 802.11 card was in the left slot.
the ethernet card was recognized, i ejected it and put the memory card
back in. bang, it works.
as i understand it, the cf 3.3v cards should be more or less the same,
technically, as the 3.3v sm cards. give the work-around a try and see
what happens.
best of luck.
