I just cloned my working CF card (Lexar 4GB Platinum II 80x) to one of my newer
CF cards (Lexar 4GB ????) with the following:
imac:~ shamus$ dd if=/dev/disk2 of=/dev/disk1
dd: /dev/disk2: Device not configured
6061608+0 records in
6061608+0 records out
3103543296 bytes transferred in 1909.268174 secs (1625515 bytes/sec)
On testing the clone, I was able to get past the syslinux and runnix prompts,
but it never succesfully booted.
What I've found is that the problem has reoccured with the cloned card running
the "good" copy--from this I can only assume it is the card type and nothing to
do with Syslinux or runnix! Does it make sense that a newer, faster card would
work slower? Is there anyway from the CLI that I can probe a card to find out
more detailed information that would allow me to discern between the two types?
I should have done this test earlier... sorry!!!
cheers... and apologies,
Shamus
