Issues with 4GB Sandisk SDHC card

Post by lacazet2k »

I just got my HxC Floppy Drive Emulator from Lotharek.
I have a 128MB card that works but I have a brand new Sandisk 4GB SDHC card that seems to not work properly.
I formatted as FAT32 (on a Mac : sudo newfs_msdos -F 32 -v "Falcon HxC" /dev/rdisk1s1) but when I put the card in the HxC it says "Reading FAT ..." (or something similar as I don't have the reader on right now) and the left LED blink .... forever.
I know the reader works as it works with an only 128MB card (IO-Data).
Any idea of what can be the problem ?
tks

Try to regenerate the MBR and the partition table.
