Hmm, I thought I re-sent this question, but I saw no replies after 4 or 5 digests, so here it is again in hopes someone can help!

Subject: Re: [NTLK] can't delete bad pkg
-> I have a MP2100, with many Newtonbooks on a 32 meg card. This morning, I
-> went to delete a book pkg and my Newton froze. I hit the reset button,
-> internal pkgs loaded, then pkgs on the 32 meg card started to load,
then it
-> hung.. right where the book was i wanted to delete. I restarted with
-> extensions off in order to delete the offending pkg. (This pkg does not
-> appear in list view, but there is a blank line instead) it does appear in
-> icon view, with a big X over it like all the other non-activated pkgs. on
-> that card. When I try to delete it by scrubbing out, i get the usual
dialog
-> 'do you want to delete...' and i say yes of course. then Nothing happens.
-> When I select the pkg icon, and then select Delete from the routing
menu.. i
-> get a (-10011) error. Is there another way I can delete this pkg and
get my
-> Newt back?

First things first, is the card a Compact Flash using Paul's ATA
Support?

>>>>> and the write protect switch is OK too. It must be this particular package is corrupted somehow, because the Newt won't boot because it can't complete loading the packages on the card. I feel if I could delete that pkg from the card, I'd be back in business! Any further ideas?
