This is a quick article on how to prepare a USB Flash Drive formatted in FAT32 to be readable under ArcaOS, OS/2 or eComStation.

According on how your FAT32 USB Flash disk was formatted and how the disk geometry setup us set you may get errors while trying to open a FAT32 flash drive like:

  • No Objects were found that matches the specific find criteria.

and

  • The drive or diskette is not formatted correctly.

On this cases it may be that the USB Flash drive has a wrong geometry that can not be recognized on ArcaOS or OS/2. On that cases you need to modify the properties of the USB Flash drive format.

Here are some options for that:

Using DFSee

Run DFSee and select:
