OK - my 2100 won't recognize the card. It is a 64 meg Compact Flash
card in an Antec CF PCMCIA adapter. The Newton gives me an error. I
don't have it written down here but the error was something like
-10852 or something like that.
I can't currently access my 8 meg card.
- Is 64 megs too big?
- Do I need to do something special to format the card? It was
formatted by my Kodak digital camera but it mounds fine on my Mac
Desktop in 9.1 with a Compact Flash USB reader.
Finally, assuming I can get it to work is there any way to load
packages by transferring from my Mac to Compact flahs to my newton?
