High Density Drive
I have a problem reading high density disks.
My set-up:
A1000 with a Rejuvenator board
2.05 ROM in a ROM switcher (with a 1.3 ROM)
AmigaDos 2.1
SupraTurbo28
Quantum 40 meg hard drive & DataFlyer controller
2 meg agnus chip & 5.5 fast ram expansion memory
Chinon high density floppy disk drive (made for the A2000)
installed in A1010 external disk drive case
AmigaDos won't recognize high density disks. It doesn't allow for
formatting in high density mode. I get an "Error validating File
Allocation Table" message when a high density disk is loaded.
CrossDos sees a high density disk as such when PC1 is clicked for
formatting, but it formats to 50% then says it "Couldn't format cylinder
40".
Are there any differences between the A1000 and A2000 external floppy
cases? Am I missing certain files?
Otherwise the floppy works fine as an 880k drive.
