Hi, I am connecting a pendrive of 4GB(FAT32)to LPC 2468 and creating a text file. When i am connecting a pendrive of KINGSTON ,SONY and reading the PARTITION_TYPE it gives 0x0b which works.But when i am connecting a pendrive od ADATA company it gives partition type as 0X72.I want to know that what does 0x72 stands for in partition type. for FAT 32: (01h) 12-bit FAT (04h) 16-bit FAT. Partitions smaller than 32MB. (05h) Extended MS-DOS Partition (06h) 16-bit FAT. Partitions larger than or equal to 32MB. (0Bh) 32-bit FAT. Partitions up to 2047GB. (0Ch) Same as PART_DOS32 (0Bh), but uses Logical Block Address Int 13h extensions. (0Eh) Same as PART_DOS4_FAT (06h), but uses Logical Block Address Int 13h extensions. (0Fh) Same as PART_EXTENDED (05h), but uses Logical Block Address Int 13h extensions. But what does 0x72 stands for.
Are you sure you really get a valid number out of it? www.win.tue.nl/.../partition_types-1.html
Does claim: V7/x86, a port of UNIX Version 7 to the PC, is available at http://www.nordier.com/v7x86.
However, that does not sound like a likely partition type to find on a pen drive.
