I'm trying to compile the hack game. Since the sources virtually fill
a disk I thought I'd try getting the .o files written onto a separate
disk (I have one external drive). So I modified the ccall execute file,
which lives in the same directory as the sources, to reflect this idea.
I asked lc2 to deposit its output onto a disk called hack_objs (the
sources are on hack_source). So lc2 chugged along and finally I got a
requestor to "install hack_objs" in any drive. I popped hack_game out
of its drive (df1:) and inserted hack_objs. That method died when the
next invocation of lc1 wasn't able to find the next source file, even
though I had inserted hack_source. (Seems like this method should work,
doesn't it?)
My next attack was to put hack_obj into df0: instead of df1:. Df0:
holds the lattice compiler, the system files, everything except the
lib/ and include/ directories (lib/ and include/ are on df1:). Things
went pretty well until at some stage - about the 4th or 5th file as I
recall - I got some kind of an error which I'm sorry to say I don't
remember, unable to finda needed include file or something. So I
decided to try something else: I edited the ccall file once again
(using ed) but the machine refused to save the file back to the disk.
I quit ed, and tried to cd to df1: again. Lo and behold I get this
requestor:

So the questions of the day are:
1) What does "Key 1077 already set" mean?
2) What do I do to "fix" it?

It sounds like, for some reason, two files on the disk are trying to link to the same disk block. I've never seen this one, but it sounds like something got clobbered on that disk. It may be as simple as the disk's bitmap, its hard to tell. > 2) What do I do to "fix" it? If you've got two drives, get a copy of my DiskSalv program (posted here in source format a few months ago). It'll copy everything from your screwed up disk that's possible, except for the screwiness. If you don't have the source available, E-Mail me and I'll mail you source or executable. If there's enough demand, I can post the executable on mod.amiga.sources. > keith -- ============================================================================ Dave Haynie {caip,ihnp4,allegra,seismo}!cbmvax!daveh These opinions are my own, though if you try them out, and decide that you really like them, a small donation would be appreciated.
