HI guys,

Well to start with my project requires Data Logging , so i used a SDHC card interface PIC18 with SPI, and i can write raw data, no probs... but of course post logging analysis in WINDOWS is not possible, so I wrote a basic FAT32 implementation in ASSEMBLY, that does the following

1) Reads MBR and gets necessary Values for LBA calculations etc
2) Write a directory information ( A File (32 Byte record ) )
3) Updates both FAT1 and FAT2 tables

When i plug in the sdhc card, Windows recognizes the Created Files, but when i try to access it, it says Directory Corrupt or unreadable

I dont know where I am gng wrong..., Help appreciated O:)

PS : till now i havent added Date and Time details, will that be an issue?
PSS : Whats is the End Of File Marker ? I just use 0x0FFFFFFF to indicate a cluster allocation, I dont use EOF ( or probably I dont know.. :( ), if anyone can , pls explain about FAT1 FAT2 tables..

Thanks :)
