Default trouble between CF IDE and CF PCMCIA.

I was try to swap CF cards from my IDE CF Amiga with my A1200. I had all the compactflash.device installed for the 1200, but when I gave it my CF card from the A1000 (formatted through IDE) It did not like it.

It would not read the native amiga partition - wow.

Any other things I could do to get these to work together. Could compactflash.device be made to support an IDE created CF card?

:-?

The IDE driver (scsi.device) automatically mounts partitions if it finds some. The compactflash.device does not do this. You have to mount the partition manually, either by creating a mountlist (like the CF0 example from FAT95, but using FastFileSystem instead of FAT95) or by using a program which can mount partitions, for example the Mounter program which comes with OS 3.9.

Bye,
Thomas

Hmm ok, that makes sense. I'll try make a mountlist or a DOSdevice icon...

Thanks Thomas!
