ntrw write 1.12.07_chs.nb1 j:
NTRW v2.00

Can anyone please advice where did i go wrong?

ntrw read error while backing from SD card to PC

I am getting 0 bytes when I run the ntrw read oldrom_gr.nb1 g: command..
It quits after this
NTRW v2.00
Removeable media
Cylinders: 0:0
TracksPerCylinder: 1
SectorsPerTrack: 16
BytesPerSector: 512
bufsize is 65536
0 bytes written Res: 0 bytes: 0
ReadFile(): german1.nb1 -- The parameter is incorrect.
Is this a normal thing..I have read posts which asks one to wait for a while ...waited for 10 mins but the file still shows 0 bytes...
Also the ntrw process is not showing up on the running proceses list.
Can anyone please shed light on this?
There's something not quite right here. It should look something like this:
NTRW v2.00
Removeable media
Cylinders: 0:31
TracksPerCylinder: 255
SectorsPerTrack: 63
BytesPerSector: 512
bufsize is 65536
255850496 bytes written bytes: 00484
ReadFile(): junk.nb1 -- The parameter is incorrect.
The parameter is incorrect thing is ok but it should show how many bytes were written.
Depending on the size of the SD card you're using, it could take a while. The above was a 256MB card. When a flash backup is done to an SD card on the pocketpc, it will always fill the entire size of the card no matter what it is. When ntrw finishes, your command prompt should come back.

Parameter error with mksbig storage hack

I am in the process of changing to mksbigstorage rom and have come across a problem. All appeared to be going well till the command prompt bit. After hitting return this is what I got :-
C:\>ntrw write mksbigstorage.nb1 f:
NTRW v2.00
Removable media
cylinders: 0:7
TracksPerCylinder: 255
SectorsPerTrack: 63
BytesPerSector: 512
BufSize is 65536
WriteFile<>: mksbigstorage.nb1 -- the parameter is incorrect.
On checking the SD card 512 bytes of something has been copied to it.
Can anyone shed any light on the problem please.
I hope I am right, been for a while since I done it, but that message you can ignore.
Thank you Riel, You are absolutely correct, The upgrade was successful.

qtek s200 unable to start after update failure

Hello,
it was updating the ROM of my s200 and failure to load, since then it only leaves the welcome screen and it does not get to load SO never.
I have read threads of xda-developers, download romupdate, mtty and ntrw, with romupdate i connect with s200, but I cannot restore the ROM.
Also I have tried it the other way around: to overturn a new ROM in card SD and to put it in s200 so that carge of automatic form, but does not make case. Attached log of romupdate, in seems that it connect thes200 and in a while it even says to me that puts the SD card. If attempt the command usb says that this to me in usb already. somebody has been able to happen of this point? Thanks and greetings.
Sorry for my english.

Linux on ipaq 210/214

Hi. I'm trying to install linux onto my pda as im sick of windows mobile. I've managed to un-tar the Angstrom distro and the boot image file onto their correct partitions. This is how my partitions are set-up:
Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 2059 MB, 2059403264 bytes
4 heads, 16 sectors/track, 62848 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 64 * 512 = 32768 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/mmcblk0p1 * 1 610 19512 6 FAT16
/dev/mmcblk0p2 611 62848 1991616 83 Linux
I boot the SD-card and load linux. But i'm getting a kernel panic as follows:
VFS: Cannot open root device "mmcblk0p2" or unknown-block(0,0).
I don't know what to do! I'm really stuck and i cannot stand windows mobile 6, i really cannot. Could somebody really help me please.
Thanks people.

SD Card access

I've made this mistake before, and it drives me nuts. I changed phones and put my old phones sd card in my new phone (Nokia 8.3). I was just going to see if it could read it. It couldn't and asked me if I wanted to format. I selected no, and removed the card. I put the card in my linux computer and I can't mount it. I did get a replacement for my old phone through warranty (teracube) and tried putting it in that, and it wouldn't read it either. I've had this problem before. I think even having the sdcard in a phone does something to it even if you don't format it. I think I formatted the card initially as ext2 but I could be mistaken.
Any help would be appreciated. I really want to recover the data.
mount:

NTFS signature is missing.
Failed to mount '/dev/sda2': Invalid argument
The device '/dev/sda2' doesn't seem to have a valid NTFS.
Maybe the wrong device is used? Or the whole disk instead of a
partition (e.g. /dev/sda, not /dev/sda1)? Or the other way around?

An SD-card ( from Android's point of view it's a portable USB-device ) usually is FAT32 formatted, AFAIK, but I may err as always ...
