'cfdisk /dev/sda' - not sda1. But nothing bad will happen - just won't work. AFAIK 'fdisk /dev/sda' does the same, so it should have worked fine. And mkfs.vfat and mkdosfs are one and the same, so he did it correctly. Could mkdosfs have chosen a different sector or cluster size - one that neither rockbox nor archos is comfortable with? /JG _______________________________________________ http://cool.haxx.se/mailman/listinfo/rockbox Received on 2004-04-08 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
