Floppy Disk Driver

[AvengerX]

Where can i get a good floppy disk driver and FAT filesystem driver (i am pretty sure i know how to install them, but my methos id QUITE monolithic, building all the drivers into the kernel, i'd like to fix that too... and my libc, how would i mka eit reside ina lib folder instead of having libc.a linked into (i think?) the kernel). i tried downloading the THERX floppy disk driver, but it was a corrupt disk deiver (according to unzip), so i had to download the regular version (which i couldn't use because i didn't have go32.h and don't intend to). come to think of it, I could write my own FAT driver, so focus on the floppy disk driver instead.

The Therx download is fine but if you want to use it remember that all the timeout settings have to altered as my PIC runs at 1000 Hz.

I have test it but i does not work until now. I have used your timer funktion in your OS, but it still does not work.
did you know you where the error it should be?

Can I see your modified code?

PS Your OS seems to be developing quickly what have you completed. You could fill out an OSID form at xinit.port5.com/osid/ (I know this isn't complete) and then link to it in your signiture using

not so big until now.
I have a basic video like beginner OS and keyboard and your Timer and Kernel Memory Manager and Task switsch with TSS.
for testing Task switsch I have used ramdisk to load a small user application which print some text at screen.
It seem to work fine until now. but to make the big advantage in my OS I need to develop Device driver and FS, without FD it is difficult to go ferther. IDE Driver is something difficult to write.
