No, it is supported and works well here in my pegasos! (wrote it above). I had in the past 3 Peg2, and all oft them worked well. I'm able to use it in DOSBOX, which is essential for me, because some of my old measurement-equippement only gives data on floppy.
If it does'nt work in your case, you have a faulty hardware or a softwareinstallation problem.

I want update thread with latest experience.
Just yesterday I swapped floppy drive and cable with another one, it’s still non recognised by system.
I used latest trackdisk.device (sent me by mail from Amigaharry) in devs: latest fat95 binary from aminet in L: using Amigaharry mountlist in Devs:dosdrivers with a project icon named MS0 with a default command to “c:mount”and toooltype “Active=1”
Result is always the same. Floppy drive is “fakery” mounted and when in a shell I want to access to MS0 I got an assign/mount requester.
I’m sure there’s something wrong or missed, but at this stage really I don’t know.

Move MS0 out of devs/dosdrivers an reboot.
Than mount MS0 from shell: mount MS0

Are there any comments?

What does info-command in shell say?

Could it be, that you have an additional, old mountlist in MosSYS:Devs/Dosdrivers?

As said there was something missed.. I have just solved looking snoopium output logs
On my system missed "openpci.library" so trackdisk.device didn't work!
Now also trackdisk.device prefs, for noclick and max errors retry, runs ok.

For openpci you have to download missing library from here: http://bvernoux.free.fr/DevPCI.php#download

For MorphOS: uncompress the zip and copy the openpci.library.elf to libs:
later all will work as expected.

Many thanks to Amigaharry for his support
I'd like to upload latest trackdisk.device on morphos-storage.
..are there any reasons not to do it?

Think, thats OK.


I'll never thougt that openpci.library is missing!! Strange thing, that there is nothing about in trackdisk.device-docs - openpci is third-party...

Fixed Openpci was included in some previous MorphOS releases so probably checking some 2.x iso would be better.

Found it on MOS 1.4.5.......seems that it has survived all the updates on my Peg till yet.......

"Libs/openpci.library
Updated to 2.1beta4"
https://www.morphos-team.net/releasenotes/2.5

"Libs/openpci.library
Removed."
https://www.morphos-team.net/releasenotes/3.2

Based on this, I'd recommend taking openpci.library from MorphOS 3.1 :-)

My earliest version it 3.5 (beside 1.4.x) I have at home......


But: Was there any special reason why openpci was removed?

> My earliest version it 3.5 (beside 1.4.x) I have at home

All releases are available to download from the MorphOS team web server.

> Was there any special reason why openpci was removed?

Also from 3.2 release notes:
"Devs/Audiomodes/Emu10kx
Migrated from OpenPCI to pcix.library."

I guess that this was the last component contained in the MorphOS ISO image to require openpci.library, so that after migration the library was removed due to non-use.

I don't remember correctly but probably openpci can cause some problems and it was easier to rewrite SB ahi driver to stable pcix.library than fixing/debugging OpenPCI.

Thank you!

Is it able to format a floppy disk in OFS/SFS at 1,76MB?

A floppy is mounted by MS0-Mountlist, which has an entry for filesystem. You may change that entry to SFS, but I'm not sure, whether trackdisk.device will work with....
If it's mounted correct it may be possible to format it in SFS

Quote:

Both the controller and floppy are pretty much hardcoded to the usual 720k/1.44MB format so proper Amiga disk is not an option.

If floppy drive is harcoded then haw people are able (using a simple soldering workaround) to adapt PC FDD to work with Amiga and read/write 880kB and 1,76MB?

Controller yes, FDD no.

880 kB yes, 1.76 MB only when using either a PC FDD that can be slowed down to 150 rpm via jumper pad, which is very rare (e.g. early revisions of TEAC FD-235HF), or newer PC FDD combined with something like that (which exceeds simple soldering).
