Thanks. I'll look for it on the board in a few days. BTW, math is now
|
||
|
up to v 1.7 (Critical only if you call it from Basic or any program
|
||
|
which checks the carry bit)

Paul,
|
||
|
The correct way is to add a enviroment varible in your startup file.
|
||
|
Just add TERMINAL_PORT /t3
|
||
|
|
||
|
Then reboot and from now on whenever you type "KTERM &" it will use
|
||
|
the enviromment varible as it's default port.
|
||
|
This is explained in the docs file on how to do this

Don't you just HATE that?
|
||
|
|
||
|
Try booting using the old stock MM/1 boot disks. At that point, you'll
|
||
|
have to load the hard drive driver and descriptor from floppy as well.
|
||
|
Don't worry about the settings in the descriptor, as they will be read
|
||
|
from the hard drive the first time it is read.
|
||
|
|
||
|
You'll need rbvccs (I think), scsi_mm1d, and an h0 or hd descriptor.
|
||
|
After that, you just need to do a dir /hd. If it works, you should be
|
||
|
able to recover stuff from the drive. If not, you're probably SOL.
|
||
|
|
||
|
TTYL. Colin.

Thanks! I've talked a bit to Kevin Pease, and I think that when funds
|
||
|
allow I'll be looking for some faster RAM.

Russ,
|
||
|
Do you by chance have a floppy only boot with a descriptor and driver for
|
||
|
a /H0. Where /D0 would be your /DD.
|
||
|
|
||
|
I just cleared a problem identical to this on my CoCo3. In my case my /dd
|
||
|
is my harddrive. I had the trouble with my /H0 descriptor. It would set there
|
||
|
for about a half minute and come up with the same error #246. I just recentley
|
||
|
altered my descriptors and didn't get both of them set right. When I used
|
||
|
'DMODE' on the two descriptors I found out the DNS= was not the same on the
|
||
|
two. DED saved the day again. :)

Russ,

I should have also mentioned to double check all the cable connections
|
||
|
first.

JD> Just add TERMINAL_PORT /t3
|
||
|
|
||
|
John,
|
||
|
|
||
|
Just out of curiousity, why don't you use MODEM rather than
|
||
|
TERMINAL_PORT? It is a fairly common environment variable.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Also, you should add support for kterm -?. This should be easy
|
||
|
to add, since you already accept a port number on the command line. This
|
||
|
should give minimal help, and copyright info. That would bring it into
|
||
|
line with most other OSK utilities, which support this parameter.
|
||
|
|
||
|
TTYL. Colin.
