I have a PB5300ce running MacOS 8.6 and am having a heck of a time getting my Digital Camera, Desktop and Powerbook to share a common formating of the compact flash media.
PB: 5300ce/8.6/Ram2x/PCMCIA card reader Digital Camera: HP618/32mb CF Desktop: PowerMac 6500/8.6/MicroTech USB CF Card reader I have formated the card on all 3 devices and each time one of them "objects" to the formating, Dos or Mac. I think I have tried all variants of formating available to me. If I format it in the camera, the powerbook cannot read it. If I format it "DOS" in the desktop the powerbook cannot read it. If I format it "DOS" in the powerbook the camera cannot read it. If I format it "Mac" in the powerbook the desktop cannot read it. More often then not it just HANGS or crashes my powerbook, if the formating is not correct. Obviously the goal here, is to have one common formating that all three devices can share.
