CD-ROM problems , HD partitions lost after file copy
« on: November 18, 2008, 12:11:04 AM »
Hi all...

Just got a very weird problem ...

I wanted to copy a complete cd-rom to my harddrive with Directory Opus 4.12, this went ok untill it was finisched...

My boot partition was corrupt and got a No Dos error after reboot.

So i put back my backup from ZIP disks and retry'd everything again, same story ...
I also try'd Asim CDFS and IdeFix drivers and ... same.

But installation programs (like StormC and WB 3.9, wordworth..) and CD32 cd's run fine.

Can somebody please give me a hint where to search for ?

My setup :

Amiga 4000, Warp Engine with 040 @ 50 Mhz, 128MB Fastram, SCSI ZIP and CDROM (on warp engine), 40GB HD, CyberVision64,XSurfIII ethernet OS 3.9 and a PAR
A4000T, 060@50mhz,36Gb scsi, 128 mb fast cvs64-3d, inidivision, x-surf, deneb usb. Gotek
A1200, 030@40Mhz, 16gb CF, 128 mb fast, ethernet, indivision, RapidRoad
A500, 2,5mb fast, 512kb chip, a590 + 8gb SD (scsi2micro-sd) and internal gotek

Thanx for all youre help, it's realy appriciated!

I have 2 partitions over 4 gb, 4.7 to be exact. And yes, tryed to copy my cd's to one of them.

Right now i'm schrinking and formatting those partitions to see if it works ok now.

The partitions where created with WB 3.9 exept for the boot partition (this one is 400mb) since i upgraded from WB 3.1

I think that DirOpus is not the problem, my download folder is on a big partition and use DirOpus to unpack archives when done browsing the internet on the same drive.

Well, checked some things...

The results :

The FFS version is correct it only occurs when doing a huge copy from CD, single files go's well.

When i copy from cd-rom to zip or DH0: (DH0 < 4gb limit) it go's well, and if i copy from DH0: to dh3: (above 4gb limit) it go's wel to, but from CD0: to DH3, then some partitions gets corrupted.

So my gues is the CD-ROM or SCSI driver, at the moment i use WarpEngine.device and registered IDE-FIX software. (mostly for CD-32 emulation)
