EWF Load Problem

[Dan Paul]

Hello,

I am having issues with the EWF setup on my embedded
device. I have included the entries from FBA log below. I
am seeing the error "ewfOpen returned invalid file
handle" being the problem. I have the active primary
partition with 210 MB, the second primary partion with 34
MB, and an extended partion with 1 MB of space. I assumed
that the EWF would use the extended partion, which it
apparently did, but then errored out. Thanks for any help!

Hi Dan,

Delete extended partition, EWF don't need it and it may cause trouble.
FBA will create partition for EWF.

Best regards,
