[Coco] Fwd: Glenside IDE problem

[Bill Pierce]

I accidentally sent this to Luis instead of the list so I'm forwarding it to the list
 





First, if the jumper on the IDE board were wrong, the "detect_ide21.b09" would not find the drive. The address in the descriptor being wrong would not generate a "Bad Name" error. More like error 244 or something I would think.
And yes... both are right... and both match. Is there a hard coded address in the driver? I'll check the repo sources for that one.
The baffling thing is the type of error it's returning, "Error 235 Bad Name". It's not an error returned for bad hardware, but more for something wrong with the descriptor.
I even checked the last char in the embedded descriptor names to make sure they were char+$80.

Is the jumper properly set? Ff50 or ff70? What does the descriptor say?
