John, you are again my hero!

by formatting it with Apple Pascal and transferring the Files with
Prodos I gained a Bootable CF partition.

Unfortunately there is still a problem remaining.

I get a compiler error which is: Error in write to code file,maybe not
enough room on disk.

I tried also to generate a new file and got a similar error "No room
on disk"

And still the CF Volume comes up with a negative block number.

I guess there is a problem with the size of my partition.
What I have found during a google search is some mentioning of a 8MB
limit.
Prodos can handle 32MB fine but maybe not Apple Pascal.

Any thoughts?
It sounds to me to be a nice project to enable the use of Apple Pascal
on a CF card and I am willing to take on the task but have never done
any work with the system.attach. I have also no documentation about
how to write attach drivers.

Anybody who can send me links or copies on how to do it?
