Yesterday I succeeded in letting my harddisk equiped 1541-II think that it is dealing with a 16 MB floppy: 65022 blocks free :)
Next two steps:
- adding partitions. My system is able to handle up to 4096 partitions (= 128 GB). CMD only handles 256 AFAIK
- subdirectories. This means supporting sudirectories as we know them but also to let a subdirectory point to another partition.
More info will follow!

Thanks :)6502dude wrote:Congratulations!!!
I think is a really neat project and wold like to build one myself.
First an update: I just realised supporting partitions.
See http://www.baltissen.org/newhtm/1541ide8.htm for the hardware details. The rest is quite outdated. You need the extra RAM. I am quite sure that I could create a version without the extra RAM but that will be at the cost of speed. The renewed page will explain this.
Feel free to email me in private.
