v26 CF problem: copying files causes a crash
Ok, now I have a more serious problem with CF than before: Copying a large amount of data (> 100 Megs) from CF to internal CF-hd ends up with a total freeze/crash (and corrupted target partition with ffs...)
The same files/hw work fine when booting with a modified (added cf0 and fat95) WB3.1 -floppy. Tried several times, ClassicWB v26 always crashes, WB31-floppy doesn't. Any suggestions? Is there a syslog anywhere

Hi!
Can we have some more info on your system i.e is it an A1200? Do you have any memory expansion and is it an 8mb by any chance? Also what Max_Transfer did you set when your prepared your CF card in HDToolBox? All the best, Steve. |

Sorry, I was a bit too anxious posting...
 Specs:A1200 1230IV 64MB@50Mhz 4 GB CF-IDE CF/SD-pcmcia adapter MaxTransfer was set correctly (I asked here 2 years ago, when I first set this system up. Now I just updated the latest version by formatting the Boot-partition and transferring a new set of ClassicWB files from CF. I had no trouble with the CF before. And I did not have trouble transferring the ClassicWB-files (because I used the floppy for that).*edit* If necessary (can't check right now), can I change the maxtransfer-value without losing the data on the partition?

Check 'Advanced Options' and click 'Change' you can see the value in this screen, should be the same as mine attached. You can safely change this setting (must remember to press enter or it wont be saved) without any harm to the drive. If you change any partition sizes, ect and save changes then you will loose your data. Hope that helps. Steve. |

Whadda you know...
I could swear that the value was exactly that.... But instead, it was 0xfe00  I changed that for all the partitions. Thank you for pointing my stubborn head into the right direction  Let's see what happens now

Lets hope that does the trick, fingers crossed! Bear in mind though you may have corrupt files and might need to reinstall.  All the best, Steve. |
