The title is the question. Anyone get it working yet? I am able to read PC floppies but not Amiga yet:-( Probably something I am doing wrong.

Yep.. It's been working some time now. Well.. I have still not used it for writing disks cause I have had no need.. ;-)
So, if PC disk reading works, you are close ... about only things that can be wrong are Filesystem and montlists..

Lucky SOD, you're actually reading PC disks. :-x
I can't even get that far. :-(

I think I'm *almost* there.
I've got the drives clicking but then ambient freezes once I actually put a disk in. (See thread on MorphZone.
)
I kinda feel like this:
Small Victories
Or go here and look at "Small Victories":

Yes you are almost there!! I was at that point! You have the NEW multidisk.device right? If so i think your problem is with the mountlists.

I'm 99.9% sure I've got the new multidisk.device. I even recopied it. The old and new ones have the same Version number right?
Are the mountlists any different then the ones supplied by the "install_me" script?

I ended up using different ones for Amiga floppies. Have you tried PC floppies yet?

I'm not sure.
I was looking for my crossdos formatted floppy but lost it. I think another one was an AROS boot disk which might not work.
I've got other floppies around but I'm unsure of their formatting. I'll hop onto a PC once I get home and format them.
I've pmailed you on MorphZone with my e-mail address. So if you can send me those mount lists.
