Yeah, as it's a basic IDE device, I don't see why not.

What I'd like to be able to do is to just boot off the CF (for low boot
-times), but then hand over everything to a regular IDE disk; swap, 
home, and other things that regularly change.  Having frequently-
changing data on a CF will kill it pretty fast with its limited write 
cycles.
