Hi, everyone! I have a little problem: I've installed a boot-selector in my Amy and whenever I set Boot-Drive to original 'DF2' (It will show up as 'DF0' of course), my Amy will forget the internal 3,5" drive. This is not a Hardware-Problem! The logic for drive DF0 is not able to auto-configure the drive, because the old V1.2/V1.3 Kickstart assumes automatically, that there is a drive df0. So, after switching the computer forgets the drive. Ok, but that's not the problem. My idea was, to MOUNT the drive via Mountlist. (You can do this with FFS-Drives, it's just a simple List and a 'MOUNT DFF0:'. BUT THIS IS NOT POSSIBLE with a drive which isn't already configured by the powerup-sequence. So, the following list is not working: DF2: Device = trackdisk.device Unit = 2 Flags = 0 Mask = 0x7fffe Surfaces = 2 BlocksPerTrack = 11 Reserved = 2 LowCyl = 0 HighCyl = 79 Buffers = 11 BufMemType = 3 # MOUNT DF2: works, but every 'cd' or 'list' will just say: 'device df2 not recognized' I use Kick V 1.2 (really! :-) ), ARP V 39.1 and WB V 1.3 Can anyone help ? (By the way, a friend of mine has the same trouble with the VD0 ASDG RAM-Disk. Any ideas?) +-------------------------------------------+--------------------+ | hgschmie@faui09.informatik.uni-erlangen.de| Space is big, | | hgschmie@faui41.informatik.uni-erlangen.de| Space is dark, | | (Henning Schmiedehausen, Glueckstrasse 3 | it's hard to find | | 8520 Erlangen, West Germany, 09131/209611)| a place to park | +-------------------------------------------+--------------------+ -- +-------------------------------------------+--------------------+ | hgschmie@faui09.informatik.uni-erlangen.de| Space is big, | | hgschmie@faui41.informatik.uni-erlangen.de| Space is dark, | | (Henning Schmiedehausen, Glueckstrasse 3 | it's hard to find |
