[Coco] Frustrated in Seattle

[Ed Orbea]

Here is more information that was requested by folk trying to help me.

(1) Dmode Output
   nam=d1
   mgr=RBF
   ddr=rb1773
   hpn=07
   hpa=FF40
   drv=01
   stp=03
   typ=21
   dns=01
   cyl=50
   sid=02
   vfy=01
   sct=0012
   t0s=0012
   ilv=03
   sas=08
   wpc=
   ofs=
   rwc=

(2) Terminating resistors
Drive /d0 (the 5.25 drive) is at the physical end of the interface 
cable. There is a terminating resistor on this drive
Drive /d1 (the 3.25 drive) is not at the physical end of the interface 
cable. There is a terminating resistor on this drive also
It is not possible to make /d0 the 3.25, since I need to boot NitrOS9 
from floppy, but I could explore booting from DriveWire assuming 
DriveWire allows using it's floppy drive as drive 1

(3) RS-DOS
When using RS-DOS and executing a DIR 0, only the drive 0 (5.25) light 
turns on, When using RS-DOS and executing a DIR 1, only the drive 1 
(3.25) light turns on.

Based upon what the responses so far have been, the hardware and drivers 
are correct. I know the drives are physically fine, so that only leaves 
the media. I probably need to use 720kb media in the drive, and not 
"cover the sensor hole" on HD media to make the drive think it is a 
720kb disk.

Comments????


Thanks.
