Try the Zaurus How-To Docs in OEFS.

I followed these instructions and had no problems getting my 4G Hitachi to work with my 6K.
Klaatu, Barada, nuuuuu.   necktie? nocturne? neptune?     Definitly an N word . . . .


SL-6000L stock rom,
Lexar 1GB SD, Hitichi 4GB Microdrive, Expansion sled,
Targus IR keyboard, Archos AV 340 w camcorder
SL-5500 cacko 0/64 rom, and a bunch of stuff I haven't
touched since I got the 6k

It's not taken from an MP3 player is it? Many of them are made in such a way as to make them unusable in normal CF slots.
