Tungsten T5 and external memory card

[rooster]

Greetings to all!

I added a 500 MB SD-card to my T5.
iSilo recognizes 3 memory areas.
[Internal Storage] the first 64 MB, equl to ROM
INTERNAL the rest of the 256 MB of total memory
[Card 2] Kingston 500 MB SD card

I tried to tell iSiloX to store a document built from a website to store at
/Card 2/Documents/iSilo/ -> landed(stored) on [Internal Storage]
I also tried with simple 'external card' from the given options.
-->landed on INTERNAL

So it seems I am out of luck, maybe knowledge
:)

The document always lands on the wrong place. Card 2 would be appreciated.
But I will have it on the external memory, as I try to gather all of the differnt formats there.
So freeing space for applications.

One possible cause for this may be that you changed the default properties only but not the properties for the individual entries. The default properties are what new entries get by default. Existing entries keep their settings. To modify the properties for existing entries, select the entries that you want to modify, then in the Document menu, click Properties (as opposed to Default Properties).

Thx for the quick reply.
I started to change the properties directly on the document, for trying out.
I too did a chnge in the default settings to be equal.
But currently no success.

Can you post your .ixl file with your saved changes so that we can take a look at what you did?

[rooster]

SSIA.
Subject says it all.

Your .ixl entry looks fine.

Here's one other thing we should ask first then: Do you have iSilo installed in the internal program memory, the internal storage drive of your T5, or on the memory card? In order for the iSilo Install Conduit (the component of iSiloX that installs files to memory cards) to be called by the HotSync process, you need to have iSilo installed in the internal program memory of your device.

iSilo installed: internal program memory
Version 4.2 (registered, not free),
Filez: 570368 bytes PalmInfo:595 K

Try to convert again an entry in iSiloX that you've set to go to the external memory card and then perform a HotSync. After doing so, could you please post a copy of your HotSync log so that we can see what the iSilo install conduit has written to the log?

[rooster]

I added the -shorten to the necessary parts- 'sync.ini' too.

Preview to hotsynclog.

In the HotSync log that you attached, it shows that the file got stored to the Internal Drive, which is by default named INTERNAL on the T5 and which appears as an external memory card to the iSilo Install Conduit. When you specify "External memory card", the iSilo Install Conduit installs to the first memory card that the HotSync process gives it, which as the HotSync log indicates is the internal drive.

Can you try your original case again where you attempted to specify the Path with the name of the external card (/Card 2/Documents/iSilo/ in your example) and include the HotSync log for that attempt?

[rooster]

+ the path File from the iSilo directory.

Thanks for posting the HotSync log.

According to the log, there is no card named "Card 2" so the file gets installed to the first found volume, which happens to be the internal drive.

In iSilo, if a card does not have a volume name, iSilo just gives it the name Card #, where # is the order in which the system lists it to iSilo, so I'm guessing that is why you specified Card 2.

On your T5, use the Card Info application to give the memory card a name and then try again using that new name instead of Card 2.

[rooster]

renaming of the Card did the trick.

Thx and regards
