Checksum / Not Validated
« on: May 19, 2008, 10:10:04 PM »
I'm getting checksum errors from a drive (partition actually) that had worked without problem. The other partition is fine. It was backed up so I re-formatted, however I still get the message.

a4000/40; z3 Fastlane; 517M partition on 1G drive

Separate stupid question: on an A2000 Bridgeboard, what is the MSDOS syntax for addressing the HD "C" directory?

Actually, I do think I mean MSDOS.  I've never had the dox for the bridgeboard (tho I did have Transformer in the day).

During the BB setup, it appears I was able to set up a directory called C on an Amiga formatted HD. It's confusing (to me) because of course I also have the Amiga C directory on a different [boot]drive. I'm just trying to write a few MSDOS files to an HD properly -- while in the MSDOS environment.

That said, I'd much rather resolve the checksum/validation issue.

Thanks.

Thanks. When I went to Information, it was reading "Validating" instead of "Read/Write" but I thought it was hung  after several minutes had passed.
