Dear dosemu team,
I have been trying to get dosemu (0.99.10-4, 0.99.10-6, RPM builds) to
work with floppies. After some non-succeful attemps with a kernel
upgrade (from RH 2.2.5-15 to 2.2.5-22) I tried browsing through
email-archives. Here the suggestion was made to downgrade to the 0.98.8
version whih is a 'stable' release in stead of the 0.99 developer
release.
This was an improvement in so far that the dosemu was so kind to com
back and tell me that it could not read the floppy. The error-logging,
however was rather similar:
Sep 21 11:28:56 bocpc1 kernel: floppy0: sector not found: track 0, head 1, sector 1,
size 2
Sep 21 11:28:57 bocpc1 kernel: floppy0: sector not found: track 0, head 1, sector 1,
size 2
Sep 21 11:28:57 bocpc1 kernel: end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00 (floppy), sector 18
Dosemu produced these lines several times (once per second).
For my configuration the use of a stable release did not bring the
expected.
Do you have any further suggestions.
BTW the floppy hardware works fine. Both mtools and normal linux mounts
work fine for both the floppy and the hard disk partitions.
Kindest regards,
Bas Leeflang
