Re: Partition Manager feedback
Jon, I'm playing around with soft-loaded Wizzo IDEFS on a floppy to access CF cards, I've tried one previously formatted with !Hform with a single partition and another formatted with 4 partitions with !IDEFormat from ICS tools (from http://chrisacorns.computinghistory.org.uk/Software.html#I) on my ...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
v0.88 seems to work well for me.
Minor issue but if you accidentally run it in debug mode in a read-only folder (e.g. if you hadn't remembered to use r/w SparkFS) then it hangs horribly until you Alt-Break out.

Re: Partition Manager feedback
I've attached screenshot and debug log from the Pi. Also attached where I made modifications on line 5 of !RunImage and 107-109 of the wimp library to force it into debug mode if Alt key is held down on startup and show that in the Window title. If you wanted to add that to your codebase would save ...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
When I tried v0.86 on my A5000 with just a CF-IDE adapter attached to the IDE port on the motherboard (no podules) running RISC OS 3.1 I got No supported file systems found and it quit. The machine had no other drives or floppy drive fitted, just the one CF card configured as an IDE drive happily mo...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
Not sure if it's intended to cover this scope yet but accessing a Compact Flash card via a USB card reader on my Raspberrry Pi, that has an existing single Filecore partition I created with HForm on Risc PC running RISC OS 3.7, shows up as partition format <unknown> on v0.85. The Pi seems to be able...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
The README that comes with FAT32FS covers mounting partitions, but to mount the 3rd partition (the p3) on SDFS:0 (the :16) you'd need: fat32fs:mount -sfp3 :16 That works beautifully, thanks Jon! Was able to happily create and reformat the FAT partition on the RPi SD card, mount it & use it imme...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
0.85 seems to work fine again on the Pi and can create a FAT partition without it failing. I've tried mounting the partition (named HardDisk2) with FAT32FS with *FAT32FS:Mount HardDisk2 *Filer_OpenDir FAT32FS::HardDisk2.$ but on the second command get 'Error when reading FAT32FS::HardDisk2.$ - could...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
Managed to upload zipped logs, the forum refused text files. This time I tried creating a FAT volume in the spare space on the SD card, it seemed to progress for much longer initialising it compared to when creating a FileCore volume but then failed in the same way as when doing 'Identifying Partiti...

Re: Partition Manager feedback
Thanks. Using 0.84 on a 64GB SD card running RISC OS 5.28 on a RPi 3B I've got 2GB volume for the OS, in the massive remaining space I attempted to create a new volume of 10,000MB to see if I could mount it somehow. I followed all the default settings apart from set it to not be bootable and then cl...
