Re: [Freedos-user] file corruption
Some older machines (e.g. this) require an specific cluster size in order to use LBA. The BIOS doesn't know anything about cluster sizes. Maybe you mean sector sizes? Almost all floppy and hard disks have a sector size of 512 byte. Expect problems with hardware, firmware and/or software if that is not the case.

The BIOS doesn't know anything about cluster sizes. right (doesn't know and doesn't care) Maybe you mean sector sizes? Almost all floppy and hard disks have a sector size of 512 byte. Expect problems with hardware, firmware and/or software if that is not the case. as this machine works with the FAT32 kernel, we can assume a sectorsize of 512 byte Tom -- Nokia and ATT present the 2010 Calling All Innovators-North America contest Create new apps games for the Nokia N8 for consumers in U.S. and Canada $10 million total in prizes - $4M cash, 500 devices, nearly $6M in marketing Develop with Nokia Qt SDK, Web Runtime, or Java and Publish to Ovi Store http://p.sf.net/sfu/nokia-dev2dev ___ Freedos-user mailing list Freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/freedos-user
