DOSEMU not seeing drive A:

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



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
