NetBSD this >week :-} ) There were some patches posted that should work for NetBSD, but I can't verify that. I am going to move to the new floppy driver, but I can't seem to find pk0.2.4 ... Anyone know where it is? Is it just pk0.2.3 plus the 10000 and 90000 series stuff, or is it a completely new kit? If some kind soul would volunteer to "ftfilt" the FreeBSD and XFree86 distribution on tape for me instead, I would compensate/appreciate greatly. :-) My partitions are all set up, so I just basically need a tar up of the entire tree. >I had a look but it seemed to have been created against an earlier >incarnation of the floppy code than NetBSD-0.9. Also does it work with the >Colorado DJ-10f (Jumbo 120MB drive) or only the 250MB drive? The driver should work with either the 250Mb (QIC-80) or 120Mb (QIC-40) drives. Good luck, - Steve steve2@genesis.nred.ma.us
