[Irixfanatic]

Hello gentlemen!
Thank you for this post!

I’m running a tough book with PCMCIA slot.
I had an older 1480 adaptec laying around, and so I figured try my luck with some irix drives lol
Was able to image drives onto .img file, and was also able to “clone” the drive onto an identical drive. However, when booting up the new cloned drive the software gives a bunch of errors as if certain files are not where they at supposed to be. Original drive is clean with no errors. 
I tried this process with 2 other drives as destination, and I get the exact same issue!

I’m using Ubuntu 22.0
Command:
dd if=/usb/OGdrive.img of=/dev/sda bs=512 conv=sync, noerror 

Any idea if it could be the PCMCIA card? Should I use the 1460? Due to these errors, I was planning on also using the older Ubuntu version 4 and 8 like OP recommends but haven’t gotten around to it. Just strange to me that the OS would have something to do with the errors.

Thank you for all your help!
