The difference between 1.44 and 2.88 Mb > floppies is that the latter use 36 sectors per track and twice > the data rate (1 MBit/s). So the entry should look like this: > > {36, 2, 0xff, 0x1b, 80, 5760, 1, FDC_125KBPS, 2, 0x6c, 1} > > Actually, there should be a #define FDC_1MBPS FDC_125KBPS Eh, I guess you mean: {36, 2, 0xff, 0x1b, 80, 5760, 1, FDC_1MBPS, 2, 0x6c, 1} ? I hope to give it a shot sometime next week. -- | / o / / _ Arnhem, The Netherlands - Powered by FreeBSD - |/|/ / / /( (_) Bulte WWW : http://www.tcja.nl http://www.freebsd.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
