How to format Emax I OS onto compact flash?

How to format Emax I OS onto compact flash?

2013-03-20 by djo3yk

I have a SCSI multi card reader that works in my MPC 2000xl  (http://www.mpcstuff.com/2000xl-mcd-multi-card-reader-drive.html).  Is it possible to use this in an Emax I? I'm not sure how to go about formatting a compact flash card with the Emax I OS so that it will boot and I can test out this Multi Card Reader on the Emax I. Anyone know how to get the OS onto a compact flash card?

The video for this on mpcstuff says that it is ATAPI (subset of IDE) NOT SCSI.

So no, that will not work in the emax.
You need either an PCD-60b or PCD-50b.
