I've tried 2 different CF cards (8GB and 2GB) on 2 different IDE to CF adapters with IDE+ and always get the "Error 144, not formatted or bad sector" message while copying files.
On a real 2GB HD under SDX, I use "copy /R A: C:" to copy the included ATR on to a partition and all directories/files get copied over just fine. But, on either CF card, I get the dredded Error 144 so I try again and it copies more files, but again still gett the error 144... Think I must have tried this 15+ times already.
The CF cards have been tested on a PC and show no sector errors.
FDisk'd 15 partitions with 65,535 sectors at 512 / 256 bytes per sector (tried both).
Can a few of you with an IDE+ try copying this ATR to a partition on your CF card and see if it copies all files without any problems? (It takes about 15 minutes)...
