OK, the original post was years ago, but now I've purchased several more
TS-7300's, and now I can only get 512M formatted on a 2G CF card, no matter
what blocksize options, auto options, etc., I try.
I was hoping the issue described below was fixed and delivered with the new
TS-7300's.
I've tried:
mke2fs -b[1024 2048 4096] /dev/sdcard1/disc0/disc
and after I mount it and df -h I see the whole partition is 469M.
What am I doing wrong?
