Subject: DOSEMU not seeing drive A:
Date: Fri, 23 Nov 2007 17:41:05 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1195832465.4227.10.camel@garthlinux.NCFPMB> (raw)
Hi,
I'm using DOSEMU 1.4.0 with OpenSuse 10.2 and I can't use my stiffy
drive. This is what happens trying to read the directory:-
C:\>dir a:
Error reading from drive A: DOS area: sector not found
(A)bort, ... etc]
The drive light doesn't even come on.
I changed my dosemu.conf to read as follows:-
# floppy drive types: "threeinch" or "fiveinch" or "atapi" or empty,
# if non-existant. Optionally the device may be appended such as
# "threeinch:/dev/fd0". Default: "threeinch" for A:, "" for B:
$_floppy_a = "threeinch:/dev/fd0"
# $_floppy_b = ""
Originally I tried with just the $_floppy_a = "threeinch"
and it also doesn't help read the stiffy.
Can't anyone help please?
Regards
Garth
