Re: [emax] Using hard disks without SE OS? ERRATA CORRIGE

2002-11-05 by Skip Spoula

The Emax will boot from only certain hard disks. Also an Emax will only format it to 20 MB thats all. I have been sucessful with the Quantum ProDrive LPS out of old apple computers 40 or 80 MB versions but you will only be able to use 20 MB of it. You can get these on Ebay for about $10.00.

  Hi

  I tried to format disk on emax before using emx on pc and now i can 
  boot with all os versions and i can see the se functions.
  Now my problems are:

  when i look for scsi format command in os plus, i receive 
  a "different software rev version" 
  I i try with se hd i can only see the bird run.......

  My hard disk is gone, and i don't like iomegazip because of past 
  experiences with "click of death" issue. 
  Can the emax read a scsi hard disk different from miniscribe, 
  rodime, iomega zip?
  (even if i can't boot from it or format more than 20 mb)

  Thanks 
  Manuel
