    "Disk is not validated" error message

    Yesterday i geve another try in install AmigaSYS in real A1200 thru WINUAE with IDE 2.5 HD in a USB adapter.

    I was manage to copy all files thru file master just like the manual says, but after, in the last step that was rename the volume from "empty" to "system" it gives me the error:
    "Disk is not validated"
    and i cannot do anything else, not even copy a single file or create a directory.

    It was the last thing to do, after it was just remove the HD and put it on the Real A1200...

    Somewere i read that it could be a virus..... ?!?

    You can either let the HDD run and let WB validate the disk which will take around 10 mins or run disksalv and use that to validate the disk.

    When i say HDD i mean Hard Disk Drive. Sorry about that. I'm not 100% about the technical details but FFS has a built in safety feature that basically checks the structure of the Hard Disk. A little like scandisk on the PC. Basically the workbech tries to repair the structure. Whilst this is going on the disk is in a read only state.

    I know someone will come along and tell me i'm talking crap but thats how i think it works.
