Hi,
The problem is with the format of the card. The SRAM 1mb cards are in a
proprietary format because they are PCMCIA type I cards. The Zoomer uses the
ATA FAT software to access the PCMCIA ram cards. Flash cards resemble ide
hard disks to the Zoomer. The software driving the cards (Sun's ATA driver)
decides what format to use.

I'm not sure what the HP driver supports.

Just keep in mind that there are two standards ATA and MFS, both support SRAM
cards in their proprietary format.

I hope that this helps!
