<pre wrap="">John,
I presume that if you plug in a new SCSI disk onto the 9100 there is a
problem?
The 5380 driver for OS-9 comes bundled with OS-9. The release at the
time may not have been able to handle drives >2Gb though. As a first
step, I'd suggest trying an older SCSI hard disk <2Gb in size and see if
that works.
Worst case it may be that the Fluke software itself is tied specifically
to this drive configuration.
Is the drive readable on standard 68K OS-9 System? Has anyone tried
that?
Regards,
Paul.

<pre wrap="">Hi Paul,
The problem is we want to update the 9100 so it can handle larger (newer)
SCSI drives. Have you any suggestions for writing NCR5380 SCSI drivers for
OS-9? We really don't want to try and save the old WD1002 card or it's MFM
drives - the drives are way too old to be reliable...

Most of the old WD cards had utilities in the ROM on the board. Not sure
I remember right off how you got there for sure, it was something like run
DEBUG and tell it to run something like "D000:0005", but REALLY not sure
about that. (Of course this was on a PC).<br>
