What file system is on your CF card? Remember that when DOS was first written, the maximum size of a volume *was* 2GB. That was a limitation of the FAT16 file system. The smallest unit of disk DOS could address was the cluster. Each cluster needed a unique address. 16 bit addressing meant a maximum of 65,536 unique cluster addresses. The maximum size a cluster could be was imposed by the FORMAT command, and was 32K. 65,536 x 32 = .2,097,152, or a 2GB volume. FAT32 was developed precisely to permit larger volumes as hard drives got higher capacities. It sounds like something on your end thinks the volume size limit is the FAT16 2GB, and isn't aware of the other 30GB. > DS ______ Dennis _______________________________________________ Freedos-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
