Look at /etc/fstab. If the CF card is listed as a mount point, put
"noquota" as an option.

IIRC, there is no daemon that watches quotas. On bootup, you call
/sbin/quotaon and on shutdown /sbin/quotaoff. If you don't need it, you
can probably remove it from /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit.

It doesn't show up as an rc.d/init.d script because it isn't one. It's
done manually in /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit. In RedHat, quotas are turned off
in /etc/rc.d/init.d/halt. But be careful about removing this: if
they're turned on, and you never turn them off, you might just keep the
filesystem locked open (so you wouldn't be able to shut down) but I'm
not sure about this.
