In order to avoid accidental re-formatting etc. this featutre is provided by individual game software. Most of the games out there support formatting of the card. We are working on getting a little utility program which will do the job for you on the Black PlayStation. Please look forward to it on the Web Site soon. Pradip Note: about storing the config file on the memory card. In my previous message I mentioned :- "The memory card you use to save the config data should be formatted and empty. The Yaroze saves the config file in the first slot (important). I do not have any idea how many blocks it takes but let me assure you that it is preety small. You can use this card to save other games from now on. So PLEASE REMEMBER that Yaroze wants the config file on the first slot of the memory card." I was not completely right. The Net Yaroze will place the config anywhere on the card and not necessarily in the first slot.
