Locked Blocks in Flash Memory Cards
A locked block in Flash memory cards occurs when power is lost or a Flash
memory card is removed from its PCMCIA slot on the RP during a write or erase
operation.
When a block of Flash memory is locked, it cannot be written to or erased. Any
attempt to do so will consistently fail at the block location. The only way to
recover from locked blocks in a Flash memory card is to reformat the Flash
memory card using the
format
command.
Caution
Formatting a Flash memory card erases all existing data on the card.
