Hi there,
I am running several SCSI devices in a SCSI chain (SyQuest SQ555,
Pioneer DR-124UX CD-ROM, Olympus Deltis MOS320 Magneto Optical 230 MB).
All is laid out to run on PC and Mac. What they actually also do. They are
also compatible across the platform. Only the Deltis MO when from th PC
formatted, is showing strange behavior when writing to it (Writing from
the Mac to a PC formatted 230MB MO Disk!). The Machine is a PB540c running
7.5.1
It does write the files, but it screws the directory association.
That is: it puts the files in the root directory, and the puts diretories
recursively all over the place. Basically I think the FAT is not written
properly.
Besides the Multi-Driver Init 2.2.6 I am running PC-Exchange
7.5.1, but haven't found any conflicts before (Syquest etc). Also I am not
running AccessPC's init AND PC-Exchange. PC Exchange apparently doesn't
provide a driver for the Deltis MOS320. So I am using the Multi-Driver
2.2.6.
Question: Which configuration on the Mac side is proven (!) to
read & write (!) 230MB PC-formatted (!) Optical disks using the Olympus
MOS320 drive.
Thanks very much for your effort & help !
Michael RS
