I've had a Catweasel MK4 for some time and figured it was time to put it to good use.
I put it in a PCI slot on my x5000, found that catweasel.device was already in the DEVS: directory. I got a straight through floppy cable and hooked up the drive which shows up as drive 1.
I set my prefs in the Catweasel setup under PREFS to Drive 1, PC HD drive and set pin 34 to RDY.
I tried to take DF0: out of Storage and throw into devs to use it as an Amiga drive. This didn't seem to work or mount anything, so I modified the list for device 1 instead and still nothing.
I used the Super Image tool, and it attempts to write and fails after the first block no matter what I do.
I DID try the catweasel.device that Ian created and was able to write most of a disk under the Super Image tool but it died at the last block (might be a bad disk). In all cases, if it failed it would send up the Grim Reaper.
I guess my question here.. what is the proper way to set one of these up? Use the drivers that are part of the OS, use the drivers that Ian created or other?
