The code is still running as I type, it sounds like it's destroying the floppy disk in it but after 12 minutes of torture, nothing happens. Thus I'm a bit confused about what to look for. It's very likely that there are still bugs left in this driver, but trying to identify them and to validate a fix will be difficult if they cannot be reproduced. Maybe they only happen under emulation due to timing issues. As such, any hint about the exact setup and how long to wait to get the error would be much appreciated. Thanks, Willy
