Hello,
I had a problem using replica to make an image from a scsi disk. I connected the USB drive, both the USB and scsi were reognized by replica, but there was no drive letter assigned to save the image file to.

Regards,

Rene Kodicek

Maybe the USB disk is not partitioned or the partition is formatted with NTFS or any other file system not supported by DOS without special drivers.

The USB disk is FAT32 formatted. Under XP and Helix the partition is recognized and mountable.

Sorry, no idea why, and I don't think one can still receive support for MS-DOS. You could try a different DOS version, e.g. a FreeDOS boot floppy disk.

The disk was partitioned, but the filesystem type of the partition was NTFS. No problem to access this FAT32 partition under Linux and Windows.
Changed the partition type to "W95 FAT 32" and it also works fine now under DOS with replica.
