Agreed. I was thinking of using fread and fwrite to do it in larger chunks.
But I'm hesitating in the hope that either someone has already done a
version that runs on the ARMiniX or that Jeff/Steffan provide a fix or
workaround. No point in my re-inventing a wheel if someone else has already
done better! :-)
Logically speaking, it would be sensible if CDVDBurn allowed a large image
to be split into smaller chunks than 2048MB. Ideally, a user-selectable
choice. But again, the failure to be able to copy > 1024MB shouldn't arise
anyway!
[Added later]
Jeff has now told me that Fat32fs has been coded to work for files up to
4GB - 1 byte in size. So it looks like the problem isn't Fat32Fs as such.
Is there a deeper problem here with the ARMiniX or RO5.19?
So far I've only been trying an SD card in the SD card slot. When I get
a chance I'll try a usb stick or a 'SD-USB' reader with an SD card to
see if these give the same problem.
Slainte,
Jim
