Trying to partition my 4gb CF card
« on: August 24, 2017, 09:55:31 PM »
Hi,

I already had a 4gb CF Kingston installed with Workbench Classic Lite which I used on my A500+ with the new ACA500+ (incl ACA1221).

Somehow I made a mess of all the programms and wanted to reinstall my CF on my PC again with WinUAE.

In a DOS window I cleaned my CF with the DOS programm DISKPART.

After adding the CF as a hard drive in WinUAE (Add Hard Drive) it shows up in the list. I noticed the letter E which seems to be an error if I am correct.

After starting HDToolbox and clicking on Change Drive Type I get to select the drive which I want to define as new. There are two drives listed:

IBM-DTCA-24090 (not sure why this shows up in the list???)
Generic-Compact Flash 1.01

I then select the Generic-Compact Flash and click on Define New...Then I click on Read Configuration and in the next window on Continue.

I then get the following error:

Unit is not a disk (type32)!

I also tried older versions of WinUAE and started WinUAE as an admin.

When adding the CF as a hard drive in WinUAE, do I have to add it as a UAE drive, IDE or SCSI drive?

Do I have to quick format the CF (FAT?)
