Hi, OS/2-Freaks,

I've got a serious problem with my SyQuest 88MB
removable cartridge disk drive and OS/2.

There comes a driver SQDRIVER.SYS with the SyQuest-
pack which has to be installed before using it.

This driver works fine with DOS 5.0: the SyQuest-
drive then is accessible with the letter D.
While booting my system with the OS/2-bootmanager
there appears the message: 1 SCSI DRIVE FOUND.
I'am using the Seagate ST01 SCSI host adapter for
this drive, but an IDE-controlled harddisk.
 
I heard about a driver for the SyQuest drive
especially for OS/2, which would cost about 90DM
(about 58US$). That's much money for such a driver.

I'm now interested, if there is another solution
for this problem.

Many thanks in advance.


Ciao   Markus
