Hello, a friend of mine made a couple postings for me about hard disk problems I have been having with Minix. I have an 80M Quantum drive (SCSI), and although I am as dumb as an ox when it comes to hardware, I believe there is a UIO adapter that controls the disk. When I try the command: dd if=/dev/hd0 of=/dev/null count=1000 suggested in the USER_GUIDE, I get a read error. If someone has a driver that would work with this thing, please mail it to me. With 1 1.2 meg and 1 1.44 meg (of which only 1.2M is accessable) I should be able to recompile and get it working with the hard drive. Thanks in advance. My address is: mml@m-net.ann-arbor.mi.us
