did u format the sd card before in fat 16/32 ?

by the way, i use a sandisk 32gb.


on the zulu card theres an ini.file
for the configuration.

but im not sure if u really need that for the functionality.
(u can google zulu, ini.file, github)
heard that by the first use, it is self created on the card.

Yes, I have done everything I have formatted on fat32.

mhh... maybe try another card...
i don t know anything else to try out.

maybe sent a message in the github forum?


or also check ur scsi cable connections again in the mpc..
( i remember on the first install my zulu didn t work because of the cable
wasnt stuck in tight enough on the board)

and some good news/update..

the pre formatted sd card (from the shop)
caused some trouble in the scsi disk management
in the zulu firmware
(there were some iso s
on it that made the zulu use them as scsi disks)
so my mpc was seeing them as the 640 mb
"fake" hds.
(more detailed discussion on git.hub)
end of the story:
after deleting some files(iso) from the sd card
my mpc just reads and writes fine to my HD. disks with 1, 8 gb capacity.
