Re: Tony and his vanishing drive partitions.
Where's he getting that .img file from though? That's the missing piece.
Wish I could just rub a lamp and get Genie do it.

Re: Tony and his vanishing drive partitions.
You need to do as I instructed earlier or as per the vid Steve sent you. If you don't specify the output file, you can't do anything.Cosmic Puppet wrote: ↑Mon Jun 20, 2022 7:15 pmBack and about to try it now.
Either I'm still doing it wrong or I need another version. Is yours version 1.0 @rubber_jonnie
I've done a vid 'cause I'm terrible at explaining meself.

The version of Win32DiskImager doesn't really matter as they all work the same, but mine is also 1.0.

Re: Tony and his vanishing drive partitions.
He isn't getting the image file from anywhere, he is specifying the name of the file he wants to create. If you don't specify the name, you cant read the SD card and send it to an image.Cosmic Puppet wrote: ↑Mon Jun 20, 2022 8:07 pm Where's he getting that .img file from though?

Re: Tony and his vanishing drive partitions.
It's working. I'm sorry guys! I struggle with basics for some reason and had misunderstood the whole thing in a way that's bewildering to any normal thinking person.
Now I know that I type a name and the program creates the .img extension. I thought I needed a file with the .img extension.

Just screwed it up again by not adding .img at the end of the name. Guess I might be able to add the extension afterwards but I've just restarted the process and it now has the thumbnail it gets when the computer thinks it's an image file for XnView.
I'm going to make a short video for 'Special people'

Not so obvious to me at the time.
