Here's one for you mountlist experts, I have an Insite Floptical disk and a GVP HC8+ SCSI controller, and I want to know how to setup the drive. What's required is a mountlist entry using the GVP scsi driver, and enabling me to access a 21mb floptical. However, here's the good bit, the Insite Floptival drive also allows you to access 1.44mb PC disks. Therefore, can I have a mountlist entry that lets me have 1.76mb Amiga floppys ?? Yes, I do have Kickstart 2.04 and yes, I realise I'll probably need to use the diskchange program to let Amigados know I've changed disks (between flopticals and HD disks). Can anyone help ?? Betty where are you ? Cheers Steve Gardiner ;-] PS – I've got the tech docs, so I know the cylinders etc, but the mountlistentries for the GVP device driver are a bit of a mystery. i.e What's the MASK value ???
