Hi folks
We are urgently seeking help for a problem with an ATARI ST
ICD host adapter and a new SCSI drive.
hard disk specifications:
SONY SRD2040Z hard disk drive with following features
- ANSI standard SCSI and commands compatible
with CCS
ANSI X3.131-1986 SCSI
Common Command Set Revision 4B
- number of heads 4
number of data cylinders 624
maintenance cylinder 1
number of bytes per sector 512
number of sectors per track 33
number of spare sectors
per track 1/16
We made following modifications in the file ICDFMT.DAT:
i Sony SRD2040Z 04 0624 0624 0624 0675 02
and
c c Sony SRD2040Z 01 33 33 000 00 576 ccs.fmt Sony SRD2040Z
After starting to format the disk we get following error message:
unable to external formatter: ccs.fmt
We checked if this file is on the disk. It is there! Does anybody of you
folks on the net or from ICD (possibly listening) have an explanation or
good advice for whats going wrong or what has to be done to solve our
problem.
Please send mail to following E-mail address: BAUMANN@CZHETH5A.BITNET
Thanks a lot in advance for your help!
