When I insert a memory card, I get a -10582 error. Whats wrong?
The -10582 error is kError_ATA_No_Partition. It is triggered when the built-in ATA card handler cannot find a Master Boot Record. Actually, it won’t find it, even if the card was DOS formatted, because the driver in the ROM always reads zeroes. And even if it worked, the card handler isn’t finished either. The consequence is that you cannot use ATA cards with the Newton without a third-party driver. See which memory cards work with your Newton (IIB1).
