Does anyone have any experience with the above mentioned drive and A/UX? I get what appears to be a read length error when I use dp to check the partition map on a newly formatted cartridge. The partition map looks correct, but there is something wrong and dp does not recognize the the drive is valid for use under A/UX or even the MacOS. Tech support is no help. Has anyone attached and used this drive under A/UX? For that matter, do the Massmicro or PLI drives work under A/UX and what did you have to do?

Last I checked, MassMicro didn't have their drive working with A/UX. There are several SyQuest based removables that are compatible, finally, but not theirs. I'd give MM a call to see if anything's new on this front. Two of the companies that advertise A/UX compatibility with their 45MB removable's are MicroNet and Advanced Information Concepts out of San Jose. I don't know if PL has updated their drivers yet. -Dave -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Dave (Gimme more MHz) Wells, Apple Computer, Inc.
