I have attempted to make a PB 2400 repair start up disk using a 128mb compact flash card (and the PCMCIA slot), but cannot get the system folder to be blessed no matter what.
My IBM microdrives work fine as start up and repair disks, but the compact flash modules will not allow the system folder to become "blessed" no matter what I do. I think I saw a thread on the list previously commenting on the inadvisability of using compact flash as start up disks and didn't pay much attention as I always had great service with the spinning IBM microdrives. Comments please. Also, is it advisable to leave a new PB 2400 uncharged in its oem container or charge it even though there is no immediate need for the battery?
