WB 2.4 vs 8Gb CF...
« on: October 21, 2009, 08:24:59 PM »
Maybe It's a stupid question but... Is It possible to install WB 2.4 on a 8Gb CF?
I tried to do so. First of all, I partitioned the CF into two 4Gb (a bit less) partitions with HDtoolbox with success, but when I tried to format a partition the format tools said that there was no disk in drive (WTF???)
Can anybody say me what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.

P.D.: I tried It on my A600 and on winuae... same result...

Have a look at exactly which version of Kickstart ROM you have. 37.175 has no scsi device support, so that probably isn't the one you have. 37.300 has, but will not work with drives over 40MB. Make sure you have at least 37.350.

Well... I have to check It... But I was using a 256Mb CF until now...

Good God!

 Never use an over-4Gb HD or CF with anything than OS3.5 onwards!

 Workbench 2.04 have the same support for large drives as Workbench 3.0/3.1: 4Gb with partitions not over 2Gb each.

 If you use anything over 4Gb the over-the-border partition will overlap and erase the first 4Gb (typically overwriting the HD/CF RDB).

OK. I knew It was a stupid question... :P

[...] but you have to add the NFS file to Devs, edit its file to suit your interface, place a command line in startup-sequence and perform an Indian Rain Dance.

And don't forget to say "Jay Miner" three times in front of the mirror ;)
