Subject: More ATAPI questions
Date: Fri, 22 Dec 1995 18:19:54 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19951222231954.FeWqf9KNgmcnFP2SvdTyPz8-u1XOHL7nDtvnmmyuU64@z> (raw)

I know that devatapi.c in the latest boddle for 9/pc is based on a 
driver by Alberto Nava. Didn't the original driver use a code '#T' 
for ATAPI drives? 
   The Plan 9 manual mentions kprof using '#T'. That would appear to 
me to cause a potential conflict if it weren't for the fact that, on 
my system, "ls '#T' ' doesn't show anything at all. 
   I've installed the boddle, added "cdrom0=type=atapi port=0x170 
irq=15" to plan9.ini. So  where's '#T'? And if it isn't '#T', what is 
the proper code?
   Along more trivial lines, is there a name for file names that 
begin with '#'? The documentation only refers to them as "roots of a 
file tree implemented by a kernel device driver". This is rather 
cumbersome, rather like "The Artist Formerly Known as Prince".
