Howdy,
As I understand it the problem with writing a floppy driver is that the chip
was not designed for such things. So Woz did some awful hacks and wierd logic
in MacOS to make it use the chip as a floppy controller. So far no one has
been able to work out the magic.

I applied your patch to the 2.2.22 source on sourceforge. We're at 2.2.23 on
sourceforge now so getting the latest 2.2 source should include your patch to
the floppy driver. I was able to get my IIfx to eject, but I seem to recall it
failed on my Q950.

Yes, it's functionally identical. The chips are just at a different
address, but that's already in the driver.

Yes, there is. In fact, if my mind hasn't deserted me, the driver also
recognises those disk drives, and tries to do something useful with
them. I played with it quite some
Hi all,
isn't the hardware very similar to the one in the IIfx?
Greetings,

Hi!
I see that floppy support has been built into the patched 2.2.20 kernel.
dmesg | grep -i fdhdreturns the following:
SWIM-IOP: drive 0 is an FDHD (ext, floppy, removable, primary)
I'm not able to find any device for this in the /dev directory. Most likely
because there isn't one.
