- I've also been trying to utilize mtools (version 2.0) on Domain/OS. I
- can access the virtual hard disk files used with DPCE/DPCC, but have not
- been able to access DN series built-in or SCSI connected floppy drives.
- Here's some of the devices I've tried:
-
- struct device devices[] = {
- {'A', "/dev/rmts14", 0L, 16, 0, (int (*) ()) 0, 80, 2, 18},
- {'C', "$HOME/user_data/dpcc_hard_disk", 8704L, 16, 0, (int (*)()) 0, 0, 0, 0},
- {'R', "/dev/dpcc_scsi_floppy", 0L, 12, 0, (int (*) ()) 0, 80, 2, 18},
- {'S', "/dev/dpcc_scsi_floppy", 0L, 16, 0, (int (*) ()) 0, 80, 2, 18},
- {'\0', (char *) NULL, 0L, 0, 0, (int (*) ()) 0, 0, 0, 0}
- };
-
- # (this is actually using the SCSI magtape driver)
- # although it fails, the floppy drive's select light does come on
- though $ mdir a:
- init: open: No such file or directory
- $ mdir c:
- Volume in drive C is VANDER WILT
- Directory for C:/
-
- COMMAND COM 24482 8-27-86 12:00p
- DOS <DIR> 2-18-92 8:26a
- DPCI <DIR> 2-18-92 8:27a
- AUTOEXEC BAT 175 4-26-89 8:13a
- ...
- 14 File(s) 18964480 bytes free
- $ mdir s:
- Probable non-MSDOS disk
- mdir: Cannot initialize 'S:'
- $ crddf /dev/dpcc_scsi_floppy -display
- SCSI ddf
- ddf version: 100
- bus number: 0
- target id: 3
- user info: " "
-
- I've been fumbling with: mkdsk, mknod, mkdev, mkdevno, crddf and have
- not found an acceptable raw floppy device for mtools. Any suggestions?
