Floppy device driver

Post by pepito »

I am writing a floppy device driver and using Bochs to test it. I crated a diskete image from a diskette, because Bochs 2.0 not support raw disk access.

I can write/read the floppy control registers DOR/MSR but a have a problem with the command that cause an interrupt:

- I understand that the floppy chip generate the IRQ-6 when if finish commands like seek, calibrate, etc. Is this real?

- When I simulate with Bochs, is the IRQ-6 generated?

Thank you,
