Tarquin,

The first time I formated it, format said 32MB in sectors. 'Dir'ing the flash found all but 137K of 488MB available. When files were saved on to it they disappeared after a reset, to be replaced by nonsense name (same number)
this is proc row_val. row_val shows the KEYROW values. Pressing F2,F3,F4
should equal 25 while F1,F2,F3 = 26. My old PC keyboard gets 11 for each and an Acorn PS/2 keyboard gets 25 and 24 (i.e no F1). I am using SMSQ/E
2.98 on a Q60. My old QL get with JS ROM works, are both keyboards slightly bad?
and size files saying "not found", the flash name and size stayed the same .I thought that may I could use MKpart to set the correct 512MB size, but accidentally I formated to a to big a size. Now all I get is
bad medium errors from 'format' and 'MKpart'. What do I do, thanks in advance.
PS 'recol' crashes the Q60.
DO NOT USE a ATA-100 cable. Also make sure that your IDE > CF cable is short and/or that the CF cable is at least in the middle of the cable instead of at the end.
The ATA=100 cable is moot anyway as there's no ATA-100 controller for the Qx0 computers.. Shortening the cable length and a regular IDE cable will almost certainly solve all your problems.
