Re: looking for emax HD SE O.S disc

2006-08-15 by esynthesist

Hi Rob, did you try the other options besides EMX ?

1/ EMXP (Windows XP)for which you have to install the EMXP EMAX 
floppy driver first (included). See files section for download. Note 
that not all disks formatted by the current beta-version of EMXP are 
bootable from EMAX samplers. The same is true for EMX.

2/ CopyQM (native MS DOS required, don't use a Windows DOS box) for 
which a zip package exists including the Plus OS, see files section. 
The PLUS OS should work fine on your HD SE. Using CopyQM almost 
guarantees a perfect working bootable disk, but CopyQM is a strange 
program to use :-)

3/ OmniFlop (Windows XP). You can download OmniFlop from the 
http://www.shlock.co.uk/Utils/OmniFlop/OmniFlop.htm website, and 
format a disk using the format option in it. Just choose Emu EMAX as 
a target layout, register the application (when OmniFlop tells you 
to) and format the disk. Then use EMX (under native MS DOS) to put 
the OS on the disk. Why using Omniflop instead of EMX/EMXP ? Because 
there's a bigger chance that the disk will be bootable on EMAX 
samplers. 

I was going to publish the new version of EMXP today, which 
definitely can make your disk, but I discovered a small problem in 
the program after two days of intensive testing so I will put the 
release on hold for a few more days and remove the problem first.
