Hmm. pcmciautils is not in grip lenny, but is necessary for the CF
slot to work on a double-sided balloon. We've put it in squeeze but
that doesn't help with the balloon plain build. It could go in via
updtes, but easier for now is just to get it from Debian so I've fixed
the multistrap.conf files in 1099:

The thing I don't get is why it's working OK here. I suspect it's down
to the behaviour of different multistrap versions and how smart they
are being about falling back. 1098 and 1099 work OK here, so I'm not
certain I've fixed it. If you stil have problems either fiddle with
the multistrap-balloon.conf file till it works or just remove the
pcmciautils mention and do without it. (You can always apt-get install
it later).
