Sure have!  I had the same problems on a Mac IIci and a Quadra 700.  I've
reported the problem to Apple (twice).  It actually seemed for a while on
the IIci that the disks were to blame, since I got about a half-dozen bad
ones at once.  Dust also played a part on the IIci, but after cleaning out
the machine and the drive, I've been able to verify that neither the IIci
nor the Quadra can format high density diskettes in any environment under
A/UX 3.0.  I've tried formatting under the finder, using diskformat under
commandshell, and using diskformat under the console emulator and X11R4.
800k diskettes format fine.  High density diskettes format fine under MacOS
if I stop A/UX from booting, but I don't like having to shut down A/UX just
to format a floppy.

Also, I find that Apple File Exchange cannot format MS-DOS diskettes, and
neither can mtools.

Reply-To: kmoloney@IASTATE.EDU ()

Problem: 

  I have just purchased a 3.5" 256M Magneto-optical drive from MacDirect.  The
mechanism is a MOST RMD-5200-S.  The mechanism works fine under the MacOS, but
is not recognized by A/UX, either as Mac partitions or as A/UX partitions.

Symptoms:

 An error message is generated in the  A/UX start up sequence that reads as
follows:

      Disk write c3d0s30 Error: Illegal request, code = 0x26
      generic disk c3d0s30 Fatal Error: Logical block 0, physical block 0

(The drive is setup as an external drive on SCSI 3.) This error message
apparently relates to the inability to mount the
MacPartition on the drive.  Also, if I try to create a file system on slice 3
using newfs it fails, with the following on the command line:

      jasper 1 #    newfs -v /dev/rdsk/c3d0s3 MODD    (My note here: MODD is a
disktab entry for a Sony mechanism)
                    ioctl: No such device or address
                    /etc/fs/ufs/mkfs /dev/rdsk/c3d0s3 -1 31 1 8192 1024 16 10 60
2048 t
                    preposterous size -1
or
     jasper 2 #      newfs -v /dev/rdsk/c3d0s3 other
                     ioctl: No such device or address
                     /etc/fs/ufs/mkfs /dev/rdsk/c3d0s3 -1 32 16 8192 1024 16 10
60 2048 t
                     preposterous size -1

The console message from this operation reads (in both cases):

                    Disk write c3d0s3 Error: Illegal request, code = 0x26
                    generic disk c3d0s3 Fatal Error: Logical block 0, physical
block 0

I am able to successfully change partitions using "Apple HD SC Setup", but that
program chokes when it tries to establish a UNIX file system.  This result,
however, leads me to believe that the drive has been successfully written to
under A/UX.

Question:

   How do I get this device to work?  Is it possible?  There seems to be an
incompatibility in the A/UX system software.  Can this be rectified through an
appropriate entry in fstab?  Or is it more complex than that?  My guess is that
A/UX thinks that there are more drive heads in the drive than really exist. 
(Just a guess.)  

    I have spoken with the A/UX answerline folks, with the MacDirect rep, and
with a MOST person, none of whom have been able to shed any light on the
problem.  I am set to send the drive back if it won't work, but like how it
seems to perform and would like to get it on line.  Clearly, I am an Unix novice
and any help will be greatly appreciated.

I have tried several times take a tape written by Sun OS's 'tar' program 
and read it back with 'tar' on A/UX ... and each time have failed.  Upon 
talking about it with the folks at Apple Techinal Answerline who didn't 
seem to have a clue, I have come to believe that the 'tc' device driver 
that A/UX uses is incompatible with the 'rst'  driver used in Sun OS 
probably due to Apple's effort to maintain block mode compatibility with 
their old and lame 40 MB tape drive.  A/UX's tar when used on HD floppy 
disks is beautifully compatible with Sun's most likely due to compatible 
floppy device drivers.  I suspect this observation holds true for the 
issues with A/UX's dump.bsd/restore and Sun OS's dump/restore.

Is it possible, and if so advisable, to have 7.1 in a seperate Mac only
partition (or disk) that could be used when running *only* in MacOS mode? 
The taylored 7.0.x system, in another partion of disk, would be used at
start-up when going into A/UX mode.

If so, could the files in the 7.1 partition be accessed when running A/UX. 
This might let users enjoy whatever benifits there are from using 7.1,
especially if the users don't run A/UX that often.

Just a thought.

  I installed After Dark (only, so that it would use the default screen Starry 
Night) in the Login System Folder of my A/UX 3.0 system. Apparently, 
I've got the right idea since the "main" (i.e., the one with the login dialog)
screen does fade as it should. However, my other monitor remains 
gray the whole time. After Dark works correctly within my own user 
account & personal System Folder. The FAQ seems to indicate that it should
do the same job (i.e., blank both monitors) under the login screen.
Is there something else that must be set up?

Right. NEC (at Mac World this past weekend) says "there's a guy working on

Hi,

I'm using my MAC AUX to help some SUNs and other UNIX machines to access
our LaserWriter. This works fine when I include the complete name of a
client in my /etc/hosts.equiv or /etc/hosts.lpd file like .eg.
"mickey.electrum.kth.se" where electrum.kth.se is our domain.

However, when I say "+" (which means all machines can use my MAC for
printing) nothing happens. "+@electrum.kth.se" doesn't help either. So,
e.g. donald.electrum.kth.se cannot print.

The results looks like this:

donald>lpq -Paux
macwithaux.electrum.kth.se: /usr/lib/lpd: remote: Your host does not have
line printer access

Does anyone have an idea?

The usual cause for this problem is running out of memory buffers for

The Hypercard "open" command can be used to start up a MacIntosh 
application from within a Hypercard Stack.  
I would like to start up an A/UX shell script
from within Hypercard. Is there some way to do this?
I have tried and have observed the following:

1) Hypercard "open" won't start a shell script with the path fully specified;
it says the script is not an application.
2) when the shell scripts path is not specified, the Hypercard "path-tracking-
capability" will not list (does not recognize) shell scripts.
3) The above items are also true when trying to "open"
(e.g.) the TextEditor or any of the "rez'd" programs in /mac/src.
4) Hypercard will "open" any MacIntosh Application, seemingly no matter
where it is .

Advice??

I currently run A/UX  2.0 but will soon upgrade to 3.0. Also, while I am
currently playing with Hypercard, I eventually want to 
do "opens" from MacroMind Director.

All this is very true and I should have qualified my statement by saying
that unless one were then to _really_ increase the load on the system,
increasing Swap isn't needed.

Swapping is great if you need it (and back with the PDP-11s, boy! did you
need it :) but nowadays, the real push is to increase RAM so you reduce the
need for swapping. The rub is, as you mentioned, with more memory one
might increase buffer sizes and run lots more processes such that swapping
becomes worse.

Yep... A/UX allows for the easy addition of additional Swap on a sep.
disk.

The two "devices" that A/UX couldn't find drivers for where most probably the
video card _and_ the ethernet card... Most Farallon Ecards are register
compatible with the Apple cards... except for the SE/30 card.

It'll require a driver from Farallon...

I think is due to the fact that after a crash, the MacOS doesn't have time
to "remove" the current entry. Thus it's still in "existance" the next
time you login...

The only work around I've seen is do what you do: logout and then login.

Or, you can use Apple's HD setup to create more than one root partition
and select the proper one from the A/UX Startup's Preferences menu.
