Hello. A requirement for my target application is to play host for a USB mass storage class device that's formatted using FAT16. I've had success with all aspects (starting from the MSD_FILE example for the LPC1768 eval board MCB1700) except when attempting to use a 4GB FAT16 formatted thumb drive. Using FAT16 and a capacity of 4GB requires the use of 64kB clusters.
Whenever I specify 64kB clusters, whether it's a 2GB thumb drive or a 4GB thumb drive, the drive is not recognized as formatted by the example program. I traced this error to the function 'finit()', but was unable to find the return table using the online directory.
I found, in File_Config.h, a struct called FAT_INFO where a variable U32 ClusSize is specified, but was unable to find where this was defined in the example code.
So my question is 2-pronged:
1) Is it possible to interface with a FAT16 file system that uses 64kB clusters, and if so, how? 2) What are the specific error return values for finit()?
Thanks!
