PC formatted 5.25 disk drive mountlist - help, please
« on: February 16, 2008, 11:00:07 PM »
Anyone have something like this?
Or should the standard PC1 mount list work for 5.25 disk drives as well?

And

have anyone tested this mount list for C64 formatted disks if it works?

BTW my disk drive has a switch to select 40 or 80 tracks. How does that influence disks having 48 tracks? Would selecting 80 tracks on the disk drive let the mount list limit to only 48 TPI?

I had only a double-density 5.25" drive (Amiga A1020).

I have this 5.25 disk drive. And i have no clue to what it can/cannot do...

Be aware that this drive does not detect disk changes, so you have to issue 'diskchange' commands yourself!

What is that command?
When i insert a disk and close the lever the disk shows up on the desktop immediately. And when opening it the disk disappears from the desktop immediately... Is that disk change?

@robo-ant
It still reports error.
read/write error on block XXX
error = 23
Block not found

What could that be?
