I've never seen a CF card that supported DMA (and I've worked with several brands). Compact Flash cards have several modes of operation and only one of this modes is "IDE-compatible".

The newer ones do. I've a SanDisk SDCFB-64-201-80 that
hangs on boot because it reports that it supports DMA
but the ide adapter I use does not connect the DMA request
and grant signals. A work around is to boot with ide=nodma
however this is system wide.
