I have 1 floppy drive and 1 floppy tape drive in my Pentium 166. The 2.2.1
boot floppy correctly recognizes the fd and the ft devices I have but the
kernel I have installed with the following options:
controller fdc0 at isa? port "IO_FD1" bio irq 6 drq 2 vector fdintr
disk fd0 at fdc0 drive 0
disk fd1 at fdc0 drive 1
tape ft0 at fdc0 drive 1
tells me I have two floppy drives:
Apr 22 10:24:02 pc-servicej-esg /kernel: fdc0 at 0x3f0-0x3f7 irq 6 drq 2 on isa
Apr 22 10:24:02 pc-servicej-esg /kernel: fdc0: NEC 72065B
Apr 22 10:24:02 pc-servicej-esg /kernel: fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in
Apr 22 10:24:02 pc-servicej-esg /kernel: fd0: 1.44MB 3.5in
My question is in two parts:
a) Why is the ft device being recognized by the boot floppy kernel and not
this one?
b) Would I have the actual boot floppy kernel sources buried in /usr/src
somewhere so I can compare?
Thanks
