DS development > LIBFAT and formatting ( UN-Fixed )

#134120 - Risine - Tue Jul 10, 2007 7:43 pm

I'm using a G6 lite card on a DS lite.
I had some troubles with it some days ago and had to format the card ( the one to insert in the gba port ) , and since then Libfat does not want to initialise anymore. ( fatinitdefault returns 0. )

Do I have to install or do something special to make libfat work again???

Did you use FAT/FAT16 for the format?

I use Fat.
Corrected!!! Don't really know how in fact, I formated again, used maintenance utility, etc... it works again :)

Well, not fixed anymore.
Don't understand what's going on!!! :(
Sometimes fatinitdefault works, sometimes not, just by changing the data file, maybe it depends on my data file size???
