On my board, I get the following:

ata1: PATA max PIO6 mmio cmd 0x1c1000000 ctl 0x1c1000098 irq 32

Note that the addresses I provided got turned into 36-bit addresses
because I am using a PPC440EPx chip.

I am suspicious of the addresses you got, but I don't know enough
about how the mpc8248 sets up its memory map.  Perhaps someone with
knowledge of that chip can comment.

Have you hooked a logic analyzer to the device?  You should be sure
that the chip selects are really responding at the reported addresses.

Since the CF works with Uboot, at least we know the hardware is good.
