This applies to the Minimig too. Maximum number of files is 511

So this is hardcoded to Minimig? Too bad, as FAT actually supports upto 32735.


It's not hardcoded, the number of root directory entries is read from the boot sector. Should work with any valid number. The default value for FAT16 volumes is 512 and most common formatting utilities do not allow to change it.

The firmware for ARM board will support unlimited number of subdirectories and files in them. Will also support long file names.
