How to copy files from Hard disk to Compact flash

Hi,

can anybody tell me how to access a hard disk and a compact flash disk to transfer data between the two.

I am using Win XP, Nios II v5.0, µClinux 1.4 and a Stratix Pro edition (1s40).

Thnx

    Hi,

    finally I made it )))))))

    Well, I&#39;ve connected to my board through another computer running Linux. I executed the ftp command, turned off the passive option and I executed the put command to copy files from the computer to the CF mounted on the board.

    And it works fine.

    I&#39;m using the ext2 fs for my CF, you can find the way to make so in the reference manual of µClinux (look in µClinux /documents).

    We only need to use the FTP command and its sub-commands. Type "man ftp" and you&#39;ll get all of them.
