Re: MSX-DOS 2 (not compatable with DOS1??)
As you might know, TeddyWareZ is doing a project called SCC-BLAFFER NT.. I use all BDOS routines, so I thought it would work with a DOS2 cartridge inserted.. But it doesn't... Is the BDOS in DOS2 different then the BDOS in the MSX itself?? I just don't get it, cause I don't have experience whatsoever using DOS2. I thought it would be downwards compatable.. Is that *NOT* true?? And how can I get things going using DOS2?? I use all the BDOS routines which refer to writing and reading blocks. (not the sector part.). So can someone please tell me how to get things going, and maybe even supply me with some good docs about DOS2??? The BDOS-routines are the same, but memorymapping has to be done using the mapperroutines instead of direct I/O in Dos2 (however, if you have allocated mapperpages then you can also use them with direct I/O. However, you must set them using the mapperroutines before executing any BDOS-calls. I can give you some more info if you'd like to... ~Grauw _ Do You Yahoo!?

RE: MSX-DOS 2 (not compatable with DOS1??)
As you might know, TeddyWareZ is doing a project called SCC-BLAFFER NT.. SCC-BLAFFER, I understand. But NT? Sounds too much like M$ $tuff ;-( I use all BDOS routines, so I thought it would work with a DOS2 cartridge inserted.. But it doesn't... [snip] Could it be that you're using memory mapper pages without using the DOS2 mapper routines? DOS2 is very picky about that. RTFM :-) They're on funet, somewhere... Eric MSX Mailinglist.

You can download the good docs from the DOS2 section of The Ultimate MSX FAQ! The link is on the bottom of that page. (The docs are on FUNet) Grtjs, Manuel ((m)ICQ UIN 41947405) PS: MSX 4 EVER!

D-Fader, As you might know, TeddyWareZ is doing a project called SCC-BLAFFER NT.. I use all BDOS routines, so I thought it would work with a DOS2 cartridge inserted.. But it doesn't... Is the BDOS in DOS2 different then the BDOS in the MSX itself?? I just don't get it, cause I don't have experience whatsoever using DOS2. I thought it would be downwards compatable.. Is that *NOT* true?? And how can I get things going using DOS2?? DOS2 is backwards compatible with DOS1. All DOS1 routines are present in DOS2. Using CALL 5h or CALL F37Dh allways works.
