I’m trying to write a shell that emulates some DOS
functionality and one thing that would be cool would be to emulate the way DOS
handles disk reads and writes. If I
mount the floppy drive as SYNCHRONOUS, then I get the synchronous writes like
in DOS, but I’m encountering an issue where if I make a change on the
disk (on another computer) without umounting, then
put it back in the linux/dos combo, it reads the
cached version instead of the new version. Is there an elegant solution for this? Thanks, David David Yang 512-919-8745 dgyang@uiuc.edu |
