Compact Flash

I'm using a 1GByte Compact Flash disk with the Altera 1c20 eval board. I can not write more than 500MBytes to it. Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

There should be no 512M limits.

There is a limit of 2GB on FAT filesystem.

Please try read/write to the CF drive, and bypass the FAT.

dd if=/dev/hda of=/dev/null

dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/hda
