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?

You might try using a different filesystem. Since you're stating that power can go away, at any time, why not JFFS2 (or some other _journalling_ filesystem)?

In any case, I don't see your issue as specific to Nios/uCLinux (at this point), so you might try asking the question in other forums, or doing some internet sleuthing on your own.

[EDIT: Out of curiousity, I found this link (http://www.openpsion.org/howtos/series5mx_new/x176.htm). ]

Good luck!
