I have copied ADSLOAD.HWT, ADSLOAD.REG, and NKLOAD.BIN onto my flash card.

I have set the Bitsy boot switches 1 and 2 to ON.

Upon restart, the HWT file is correctly loaded into Flash. (At least, the size is correct, and the mem-to-flash comparison says it's successful.)

Then it fails to load the other files and hangs.

ADSLOAD.HWT : Reading ... Writing...
Programming flash (this will also take a few seconds).
File Size = 3955(0xf73) bytes .
Erasing flash...
Successfully Erased !!!!
Writing Flash Header Size...(0xf73 bytes) .
Writing Flash...(from 0x40004 to 0x40f77).
Compare Memory with Flash, Successfully Done !!!

ADSLOAD.REG : Reading ... Writing...
Failed to load ADSLOAD.REG from an ATA Flash Card.

ADSLOAD.EXE : Reading ... Writing...
Failed to load ADSLOAD.EXE from an ATA Flash Card.

ADSLOAD.BMP : Reading ... Writing...
Failed to load ADSLOAD.BMP from an ATA Flash Card.

NKLOAD.BIN : Reading ... Writing...
Failed to load NKLOAD _

And it hangs right there.

I have tried different combinations of filenames with upper- or lowercase letters. Makes no difference.

What kind (brand, size) of card are you using? Is it CF or PCMCIA? Also, please let us know what version of the Bitsy bootloader your system is using (it's reported at the beginning of boot).

Upon booting the Bitsy can find the PCMCIA card but won't load the same HWT file. So I used a Kingston 64MB CF.

The bootloader is version 1.75.
