I do not have the board mounted in anything right now so it is not exactly easy to test.
Hopefully I will get to this later.Also it might be that the misdetection only occurs with scripts that try to determine the card automatically using debconf like live- initramfs does. At least for one card the automatic detection works if there is the default config with no card specified but fails if live-initramfs tries to determine the card type using debconf.
Thanks MS
