The results may at least be instructive. I haven't put any files on it, but there a number of files already on there which include PDF manuals. So there is something on there already, whether these files could be causing a problem or not I don't know ? I have just tried it with !ROFS and the stats given for "Drive 0" are as follows Volume label - er choice a bytes per sector - 29216 sectors per cluster - 101 bytes per cluster - 2950816 Reserved sectors - 30068 Number of FATs - 114 Sectors per FAT - 17749 Sectors in root dir - 32 Base of root dir 1004403766 FAT type - nd retur Also when I first click on !ROFS with the MP3 player plugged in I get the following error message Bad block size, must be 256/512/1024 in "ROFS" (error 43) at line 3700 cheers Matthew > --- > To alter your preferences or leave the group, > visit //www.freelists.org/list/iyonix-support > Other info via //www.freelists.org/webpage/iyonix-support -- Message sent from an IYONIX www.iyonix.com Using RISC OS 5 : RISC OS Open Ltd www.riscosopen.co.uk --- To alter your preferences or leave the group, visit //www.freelists.org/list/iyonix-support Other info via //www.freelists.org/webpage/iyonix-support
