Unsupported physical sector size

<< < (4/4)

pwhodges:
Is software modification always sufficient to handle the larger sector sizes?  I'm asking because I fancy putting a 240GB disk into my iriver H340 (currently at 120GB), but would rather not waste the money if it is likely that the iriver interface is likely to prevent access to the larger sector sizes.

nugged:
I rebuild 3.3 relese for mine 240Gb iPod Video 5G 64Mb with both strings changed to:


--- Code: ---#define MAX_LOG_SECTOR_SIZE 16384
#define MAX_PHYS_SECTOR_SIZE 4096
--- End code ---

question1: When I run this on my iPod, it boots, works, but some subdirectories suddenly appears as empty (randomly by name, but staticly, maybe by place on disk), but in real - they not empty, and from USB I see files/subdirs in them. ChkDsk gives no errors.
What also I need to chage in code to make it work correctly?


question2: do I need to include "#define HAVE_LBA48" too?
I tried, but compilation aborts with errors.



thank you for info.
