#5 | fixed | XTIDE cannot boot from hard disk | somebody | 16bitPM |
Description |
I have a clone 80286 computer with 5MiB of RAM and a Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 8 drive. XTIDE is configured on a network card with EPROM socket. XTIDE has been configured for 1 IDE controller, with interrupts enabled. This system was working successfully before, until the drive slowed down more and more, notably during the boot process. At a given point, the computer started to hang at the point "Loading MS-DOS..." needing a hard reset. I made the following attempts:
As a final resort, I will try to manually configure with interrupts disabled, but theoretically this shouldn't make any difference since both IRQ lines on that computer are free anyway. Please let me know if you need further information. |

#3 | invalid | Problem formatting in 1.2 MByte drive | somebody | dergrell |
Description |
hi: formatting 1.2 Mbyte disks shows many many bad sectors only on the NuXT. No errors occur on a Pentium II PC using the identical two drives, which work properly there on. My suspicion: Error in INT 13h not deleting the double stepping that is used for 360 KB disks. And of course HD disks were used. XUB was BIOS 0.9.8 |
