The name of the generic driver file is system dependent and corresponds to the name used for your
generic SCSI disk driver. For example:
Eagle 450 with AM-138 CPU board
FLP138.DVR
AM-6000 or 6060 with Roadrunner 060 board
FLPR60.DVR
FIXLOG
allows you to configure the driver for the SCSI device ID (usually 5), the number of logical
disks (usually 1), and the number of read-ahead blocks (usually 7). Read-ahead is not supported in the
AMOS compatibility mode and the driver will ignore the read-ahead configuration provided by
FIXLOG
.
To create a diskette driver do the following:
LOG DVR:
FIXLOG
Fixlog.lit Version x.x(xxx)
1. Change the number of logicals
2. Create a sub-system driver
Enter choice: 2
Enter the name of the generic driver to be used: FLP138
(use
FLPR60
for AM-6000 systems)
Enter number of logical drives per physical unit: 1
Enter the SCSI ID(0-15): 5
Enter number of read-ahead blocks: 7
Enter new driver name: FLH
New driver is now in memory.
To save the software driver to your hard disk drive, type
SAVE FLH
The answers to the above questions, naturally, depend on the type of driver you are creating and the SCSI
ID of your diskette drive.
You must have drivers for each diskette format you expect to use on your system.
