[comp.os.minix] Continuing AT hard disk problems

Hello everybody,

Some time ago I posted a query to the net about problems with an AT clone
hard disk. This was before the gatewaying between the various lists was
working flawlessly, so I'm not sure whether the query even got out past
our local LISTSERV. However, today I saw a reference to a reference (!)
concerning patches to at_wini.c that had appeared on the net. Would some
kind person be willing to mail me these directly ?

I have refined the apparent problem down to the fact that one sector only
is being corrupted, and it is always an even numbered one, i.e. the second
sector of a MINIX block, if that is a help.

Thanks in anticipation, Alun Saunders

Well thanks Alun. I think it might be more charitable if the patches
weren't mailed directly to you, but back to the list so that everyone
who didn't see them originally can see them now.

Changes to 'at_wini.c'...  Can we see them too please?

Karl
