Newsgroups: net.unix-wizards Subject: Emulex SC780/Fujitsu Eagle 4.1bsd query Message-ID: <1339@ucf-cs.UUCP> Date: Fri, 22-Jun-84 17:43:36 EDT Article-I.D.: ucf-cs.1339 Posted: Fri Jun 22 17:43:36 1984 Date-Received: Sat, 23-Jun-84 23:43:10 EDT Organization: University of Central Florida Lines: 27 We will be receiving a SC780 and a Fujitsu Eagle shortly, with the ultimate plan being to run 4.2bsd on the 780. We presently run 4.1bsd with two RP06's which will remain on the system when we convert to 4.2. There will be a short time during which we will have the Eagle [hopefully] running under 4.1, which prompts my questions. 1) While the hp.c in 4.2 has a table, etc., for the Eagle, 4.1 does not. Thus, it would appear that if I am to run the drive with 4.1 I must get the B2 firmware for the SC780 unless I want to hack hp.c. Is this true? (The B2 firmware supports 44 sectors per track and wastefully emulates two RP06's). 2) If the answer to 1) is yes, does anyone have a hacked hp.c that works with the B3 firmware? If so I'd appreciate a set of diffs. 3) Is the B3 firmware the way to go with 4.2bsd? It would seem so since it handles 48 sector tracks and allows 414 Mbytes of storage; also, the table in hp.c appears to be set up with this emulation (extended RM80) in mind. Thank you.
