RM> Sigh..yesterday, my MM/1's hard drive decided to stop letting me in.
|
|
RM> Sysgo dies upon booting from floppy, stating "can't
|
|
RM> CHX to /h0/cmds" or something similar, after
|
|
RM> printing "Error #246". OSK manuals say error #246
|

RM> means "device not ready".

Can you tell if the drive is spinning up? You may take the drive and twist it
|
|
slam it into your palm then power it up. If you have a stiction problem this
|
|
will usually get it going, at least for a while.

I'll put that idea on my list of priorties.
|
|
|
|
First on my list is getting ZModem RX/TX working.
|
|
Second is to fix a minor problem in the ANSI Color Routine.
|
|
Third fix YModem TX to be a batch type TX
|
|
Forth your idea of switching to the enviorment varible MODEM
|
|
Fifth your -? idea.

Re: dead hard drive
|
|
|
|
Yep, I've tried going back to an old boot disk, loading up the hard disk
|
|
drivers, inizing /h0 etc. No luck. Darn stubborn thing..if nothing else, I
|
|
plan to give myself a free lesson on the inside guts of modern hard drives..
|
|
At least I've got a minimal floppy-based system back up, so I can start
|
|
re-doing some of the work I lost.
|
|
|
|
thanks,
|
