Idefix has a problem with CF cards that are set as removeable disk.
You either need a CF card which is set as fixed disk  or use the idefix patch that Doobrey wrote.
 
See this thread at EAB. You can download the patch from there.

I think it's best if you try Doobrey's patch. If it works for you, I guess the info on the wiki page is wrong about the Transcend 133x CF cards.
 
I know Transcend sells some fixed disk CF cards, but I don't know if the 133X cards are set as fixed.

I'm afraid I don't know nothing about OS4 for classics. I don't have a PPC accellerator. Maybe someone else can give you some clues about that.
 
I suggest that you try to install idefix on your os3.x installation first and then, if you can get that to work, install os4.

BTW where did you buy the CF card?
 
Could it be that you have bought a fake 16 GB CF card?
