Cowon x5 + ssd problems
« on: April 10, 2014, 07:31:07 PM »
Hi guys,

Have recently found my cowon x5 after a long break and with nostalgia for the good old days decided to refresh it with new ssd. Brand new 64gb KingSpec ssd (KSD-CF18.6-064MS) was delivered today and for the last 4 hours I was trying to make it work, though so far unseccessully...I formatted it into FAT32 hundred different ways (deleting and creating partitions with acronis disc director, formatting them) but still both latest rockbox bootloader and original formware cannot see it showing "no partition found/HDD error" message. I would extremely appreciate any word of advice!

Might be useful for somebody - fixed it with MBRWizard changing the partition type for FAT32 (for some reasons other tools did not manage to adjust it, even though I formatted disk in FAT32) and making the disk bootable. Also it works only in Rockbox, original bootloader still complains about HDD error.
