Hi all!

I using the EWF but don't work, I see the FBAlog.txt, and I understand than
don't work becouse don't have sufficient memory.
The overlay of EWF is RAM.
The size image is 100 Mb.
I have 128 Mb RAM.
how many memory I need ?
I need 200 MB RAM, is correct ?

Thanks in advanced.
 
Sorry, I just realized you did not mention the size of the protected partition.
In the worse scenerio, EWF RAM usage would be close to that number.
 
Can you give more details on the error in the Fbalog.txt. What do you get
when you type ewfmgr at the command prompt in your runtime?

Thanks
Nandini

Josep,

"unallocated" means free (unformatted) in this context.

I am lazy so I'll refer to the "picture" from this thread.

It should explain you what Nandini meant.

When EWF is initialized, it creates EWF Config partition. That is why you need some raw space on the disk - for this config
partition.

If you don't need to use EWF "disable" command at run time, you may go with registry based stateless EWF. Check out Slobodan's
ramewf component (you can find it on www.xpefiles.com).

I am sorry, I don't understand
What's does mean "unallocated space" ?

This is the configuration on EWF:
maxium number of protected volumes -> 1
maximum number of overlay levels -> 1
EWF partition size in kbytes -> 0 becouse I use RAM
overlay, is this correct ?
Start EWF enabled -> enable
Enable lazy write -> disable
Disk Number -> 0
partition number -> 1
disk tipe -> IDE
overlay type -> RAM
Optimization optiona -> use less overlay space & less writes

I don't understand this,

You will need to partition your drive so that you have a 32kb of free
space available in an extended partition on the drive.

in extended partition ?
I have a 2 partitions a primari where i have the WXPe and secondary where i
have the wXP

Looking at the FBAlog, EWF is not configured properly on your machine. Do
you have free unallocated space on your disk?
