Been trying to install freedos V1.0 onto a SCSI HD. The fdisk program is giving me Invalid Drive Designation but will see the SCSI drives when I issue "set FFD_VERSION=6" at the command prompt. That doesn't do me any good though with xfdisk or format. System specs and SCSI specs and settings follows:
Motherboard: ASRock K7VM2 BIOS: AMI BIOS version P1.90 CPU: AMD Duron 950MHz Memory: 512MB SCSI Controller: Adaptec AHA-2940/AHA-2940W Firmware version 1.16 Settings: Host Adapter SCSI ID = 7 SCSI Parity Checking = Enabled Host Adapter SCSI Termination = Enabled Advanced Options: Reset SCSI Bus at IC Initialization = Enabled Host Adapter BIOS = Enabled Support Removable Disks under BIOS as Fixed Disks = Boot Only Extended BIOS Translation For DOS Drives > 1GByte = Enabled BIOS Support For More Than 2 Drives (MS-DOS 5.0 and above) = Enabled SCSI Devices: SCSI ID 0 = Quantum QM318200TD (18GB) SCSI ID 1 = Quantum QM318200TD (18GB) From these settings FreeDOS should see the drives a ordinary fixed disks. But it doesn't. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Charles P.S. Linux can access these drives just fine. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
