Explanation/Solution
This indicates that there is not enough conventional DOS
memory available for PutDisk to complete the flash update
process. You may need to unload (terminate) some applications,
device drivers, or TSR programs to free the needed memory.
PutDisk has determined that the target JANUS drive is
comprised of ROM (read-only memory, which cannot be
written to by PutDisk) instead of flash memory. Other kinds of
system faults can lead PutDisk to make this determination in
error, such as a flash programming voltage fault or address
decoding problems.
PutDisk has determined that the target JANUS drive is
comprised of RAM (random access memory, which cannot
support a non-volatile drive) instead of flash memory. Other
kinds of system faults can lead PutDisk to make this
determination in error, such as faulty flash memory or address
decoding problems. You may need technical support to solve
this type of error.
Attempts to update a JANUS drive other than C or D are
unsupported. Restart PutDisk, and specify the drive
/d=[drvletter] as either C or D.
If either of these messages persist after retrying PutDisk with a
fresh battery or charging source, it may indicate a flash memory
hardware failure on the JANUS device.
This may indicate that the flash memory update was
incomplete. You will need to restart PutDisk using the same
image file.
The size of the drive image file is larger than is declared valid
by the formatting portion of the image file. You will have to
reconstruct the drive image file by using the MakeDisk utility.
The size of the image file is larger than the targeted drive's flash
memory on the JANUS device. You must reduce the total file
content (total size) of the drive image file by rebuilding it with
the MakeDisk utility using fewer or smaller files.
