Hi!

Im preparing the SD card all is good but when i get to the step of formatting i get this error from PFSFormat:

Device Not found

the SD0 is mounted but I cant see it on the workbench but when i try and mount it again it states its mounted?

Any ideas?

Thanks!

I tried the same thing in Dopus 5. I get a PFS error stating I can't format the drive. Been soooo long, I reckon I have to fiddle with the partitioning and file system settings. Anyone have a sample setup?

I got the same problem.

I also can't format the SD card with the pfsformat command like:
C:PFSFormat DEVICE=sagasd.device NAME=SDCARD1 QUICK FNSIZE=107

I get the same error: Device not find ( mustbe found I think )

Can I format the sdcard with the standard Amiga OS format tool ?

  I also recommend to use "APoke ADDRESS=DE000C SIZE=1 VALUE=0F" from aminet, run it after the mounting.
