Why does copying to PCMCIA CompactFlash card fail with "file already exists", when a new, empty directory has just been created?

Problem symptoms

  • Copying a directory structure to a CompactFlash card in the PCMCIA slot (via adapter) fails with "file already exists", right after the very directory which should contain the file has been created.
  • Extracting .lha archives from a CompactFlash card in the PCMCIA slot (via adapter) produces a lot of errors

Solution

That's a bug in older versions of FAT95. 

Update FAT95 to the latest version.
