Default Re: 1100 Drive Error

DD does not support writing to a NTSF, at least the ones I have used. You can mount a usb pin drive and write the boot tracks to it.

You may have one of the early 1100's that were actually something in between the 2 models. If so a quick test would be to power down and disconect the HD, power up and see if you can connect to the admin. If so just slap a new drive in and let it go.

If your tring to copy the whole HD to a NTSF drive, don't recomend it with dd. If you have true image use it. Must use the RAW copy function, which normaly means it must goes back to the same size. and the size is = to what you are copying, not compression and copies unused space. If you have a replacement HD, use dd to copy it to your new drive. When you boot it it will show your original drive size. To correct the size, you must reformat the HD, so backup to a outside source.
