card. The upgrade may fail if the CF/PC card contains a corrupt file system.
The MK1200 is equipped with a PCMCIA slot only. This slot is used to connect the Spectrum24 radio card
in MK1200 devices with a wireless facility. You must remove this card before upgrading.
Use a CF card with a CF/PC card adapter.
