Dear Rosanne Rosanadanna,
I am having trouble installing the 3 dis[ck] demo set; This is a
Toshiba T2450CT laptop (75MHz i486DX4, 8MB, TFT VGA, 320MB IDE, and
AccuPoint).
The problem occurs on the first dis[ck] when B.COM is invoked on the
A: drive. B.COM seems to find, load, and run 9DOS. Here is what it
says:
1269 free pages, 5076K bytes, swap 32596K, highwater 252K, headroom 312K
CPU is a 74 MHz IntelDX4 (cpuid: ax 480 dx 3)
pcmcia controller0 is a 1 slot Cirrus Logic PD6710
fs...time...panic: ataintr: read/ident
exiting
Any ideas?
We took this off line. After a few go arounds we figured out that the
drive was sending us ident info that Plan 9 didn't understand. We made
the driver more robust in the face of rediculous info. The diffs are
in http://plan9.att.com/plan9/errata/devata.c.diff. I also made a
version of disk1, ftp://plan9.att.com/plan9/pcdist/disk1.2 with the
changes included.

> c:\> b hd!0!9dos
The same panic message appears. FYI, the disk controller is in
Enhanced IDE mode, and I'm unable to change it to Standard IDE mode.
Thanks

It means that after getting an interrupt from the hard disk
we didn't see it come ready or announce an error in a
timely fashion.
Try copying b.com and 9dos (under DOS) to c:\ and then running
c:\> b hd!0!9dos
to see if at least the driver in b.com can understand
the disk. If this doesn't work, I can always make a
more informative 9dos to try to track down the problem.

boot dos and execute 'a:\b hd!0'.
this will show if b.com has the same problem (it won't touch the hard disc if
it detects there's a floppy installed). also, b.com has a debugging print installed
for this case.
it may be something like the cmos indicates there is a hard disc but the disc/controller
is in some sleep mode we don't know how to get out of.

P.S.
(1) An older Toshiba (T4600) installation of the demo set was
successful.
(2) For the troubled T2450CT, I followed the instructions in the
``Read this section if you have trouble installing on the PC''
section, and got the same result.
