dd: writing to `/dev/hdc': Input/output error
I have these little 256mb flash drives that plug into the ide port on the motherboard. i need to get make an image of one and write it to another. These flash drives are running what i believe to be Venix 2.0 (the filesystem is Venix 80286 (id 40)), I've made a couple images of the drive using
dd if=/dev/hdc of=venix.img
and
cat /dev/hdc > venix.img
after i make the images i then try to put put them on the new drive using
dd if=/venix.img of=/dev/hdc
but no matter which version of the image i use, i get this error:
dd: writing to `/dev/hdc': Input/output error
499969+0 records in
499968+0 records out
anyone have a clue why i cant copy this image to the new drive?
