Need help on Hitachi 911
Hi everyone. I'm quite new for this kind of thing. I have H911 unit and want to replace it with HxC F. emulator. Could any one here give me step by step instructions to follow? Thank you in advnce.
Re: Need help on Hitachi 911
On Hitachi 911, you have to use S950HD mode.
For what I remeber, if you use Lotharek hardware, you can use only one emulator. If you use Gotek, you have to use two, one for each drive. (but that too might be different, it's been a long time we used it).
For Lotharek emulator:
- Connect original floppy drive as drive 1 and emulator as drive 2.
- Boot with original system disk on drive 1 and a fresh image on emulator (drive 2)
- Copy system disk (drive 1) to emulator (drive 2).
- Change image on emulator and change disk (use data disk on drive 1)
- Copy data disk (drive 1) to emulator (drive 2).
- Rename system image to to startupa.hxc and data image to startupb.hxc
For Gotek, you just change the flash drive when you copy the other disk, and use both drives in DS0 mode.
Brgds,
