HP-50g. Cant' create directory on SD-card? Message #1 Posted by Bent Rosnes on 17 Nov 2006, 11:10 a.m. A "beep" is all I get when I try to create a directory (FILES > 3:SD > NEW) on the SD-card (Kingston 512 MB elite pro). I have used the build-in FORMAT function ("FILES>FORMA"), so the file format (FAT?)should be ok. Is there solution to this problem? Regards Bent Rosnes

If the directory does not already exist, those instructions will create the directory.

But what about changing the working directory (CHDIR) to port 3:SD? It seems like that only works for the Home-directory and its subdirectories. Regard Bent Rosnes

Message #4 Posted by Gene on 17 Nov 2006, 4:47 p.m., in response to message #3 by Bent Rosnes Working with SD cards and directories on them is really only minimally supported. The filer does not do some things with SD cards and directories that it might could do. So, essentially, what is in that PDF is the supported way of working with SD cards. That's what you've got, for good or bad. Gene
