Formatting CF card in the SL-5600

[yodabob]

I\'m having difficulty flashing to the pre-emptive patch kernel.  I\'ve put updater.sh and zImage.bin in the root of the CF.  I\'ve tried formatting the CF under XP-PRO as both FAT and FAT32, but neither seems to work.  Can anybody give me directions for formatting this card internally in the Z ?  I\'m not a Linux guru, but I can obey instructions pretty well !

Thanks !

You need to format your CF card as FAT16 (Also referred to as DOS FAT and is just \'FAT\' in the Windows formatter).
