Focus Hard Drive problems Error 0048, Folders within folders.



Ok, I remember why I hadn't already stuck this in my IIgs.

I go into the Focus Utilities program, and do a Hardware check, and a Media
check.

The program says that my Focus Card and the hard drive is OK.

I have Focus ROM version 1.2, The card is in Slot 6 (set to YOUR CARD)

The Focus Driver WAS **NOT YET** installed in my System 6 directory....

The drive originally came from my IIe.  I tried the following:

Copy System 6 folder (My working system) straight to the Focus Drive (Using
the finder, and Click, Drag, and Drop)

It reads all of the files, but then the system reports:

********************************************
SYSTEM ERROR  ($0048)  This operation can't be completed.

Bad storage type
********************************************

I then try to copy 1 file at a time (Open my working system folder, and drag
items individually into the Focus Drive window)

This works GREAT!  I can copy individual files, and even folder, but when I
try to copy a **FOLDER with a Folder within it****   I get the same error
message as above.
I can  copy *multiple* files, but not if a folder has another folder inside
of it.

I installed the Focus Driver in my System 6 directory, and got the same
problems.

So I figured that the Drive needed to be reformatted.  First I did the Focus
Card and media checks, which told me it was A--OK.

I formatted, I have a 160 Meg drive, so It gives me 6X   28 Megabyte
Partitions.

Formatting reports no errors.

REBOOT........System says it cannot recognize FocusPartition1.  Do I want to
initialize or eject?

I choose initialize, PRODOS, (28 meg) and do the same for Partitions 2-6
(windows kept popping up saying that the disks were unreadable)

The initialization of these drives took  **1 SECOND*** apiece.

Ok, so now I have the 6 Focus Icons on my Finder's screen.

I once again try the Click, Drag, and drop Copying of my System 6 Folder
into the Focus Window.

I get Error $0048 again!

I have read the FAQ, and it says that Error $0048 is VOLUME FULL error.

The volume has NOT A SINGLE file in it!

I can still copy *individual* files, but not Folders that have folders
inside  of them.
I can still copy *multiple* files, but not if a folder has another folder
inside of it.

Whats going on here?  Do you have any suggestions on how to fix?
