[comp.sys.amiga] Mountlist help!!

JKT100@psuvm.psu.edu (JKT) (10/08/90)

I have a 2091 controller with a Quantum 105S.  I just created 2 partitions
and both partitions work PERFECTLY if I have the 2091 automount them.  BUT
one of those partitions is for A-Max II and I do not want it to automount
and clutter my WB when I am not running A-Max.  I've tried to create a
mountlist for it, using the info I saw in HDToolbox, and I've ALMOST
got it working, but A-Max II still won't recognize the partition when I
use my mountlist entry below:

AMAX:      device=scsi.device
           filesystem=l:fastfilesystem
           unit=3
           flags=0
           surfaces=1
           blockspertrack=70
           reserved=2
           interleave=0
           lowcyl=1470; highcyl=2928
           buffers=30
           globvec=-1
           bufmemtype=1
           mount=1
           dostype=0x444f5301
           stacksize=4000

Ideas please!!!

(my mountlist entry deleted - see previous posting if you want to
 look through it...)

I wanted to add some things I forgot to include in my previous post.
First, when I have the AMAX: partition automount, I do know it is unit
3.  I found this out by typing CD AMAX: in the CLI and I got back an
error requestor saying "Not a DOS disk in Unit 3."  Nevertheless, I have
tried units 0-9 in the mountlist just in case...   No luck.

So if I can rule out the unit=3 line, anyone know what else might be
wrong with my mountlist entry?  The command I use to mount it is simply
MOUNT AMAX:  After this command, it DOES show up in the device list when
I type INFO.  A-Max II just doesn't like it.  Thanks for any ideas,
                                                         Kurt
