This will create a file named image.vhd which is about 2 * N MiB in size. $ dd if=/dev/zero of=image.vhd bs=516096 count=N If you have a minute you could post the step by step how to make it again, I will try to replicate.įor the record, I managed to create a working HDD image from within MiSTer with the following instructions. Even though in theory seems we are making them in the same way. And I would've though that the BIOSes in ao 486 and PCem I've used were already capable of handling that any chance you could zip and upload this (empty) 1GB Hdd of yours somehwere? I'd like to test it vs my files. I also read that FAT16 is capable of making 2GB partitions. This 530MB limit seems more related to some of the other ATA/HDD limits but I'm not sure why. Not sure if the amount of files can affect things in general, I was reading about space loss due to cluster sizes (so 100kb file becomes 128kb) in FAT 16 but still even with that considered not sure it could've accounted for my case (only 530 GB fitting into a 1GB+ hdd). But all this is kept in separate directories, not root. Overall the collection I need it for has a huge amount of files - approx 74K files in 4000+ directories. I don't have many files in the root, just a handful of normal DOS ones.
