Hello. Does FreeMiNT has block devices, something like /dev/fd0, /dev/sda and /dev/sda1 in Linux ?
I think so, maybe these link can help you? http://sparemint.atariforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb/freemint/doc/programmer/block_IO.txt?rev=1.1.2.1&content-type=text/x-cvsweb-markup http://sparemint.atariforge.net/cgi-bin/cvsweb/freemint/doc/block_IO.txt However,I know that there is /dev/fd0, - and I believe it is what you call a block device.
But I think it's an completly different story with hard-disks, as you know, the driver for harddisk is loaded before FreeMiNT kernel. And filesystem drivers directly create devices like U:/f - for example, and I'm not sure if they can be called block devices, because the data transfer ( of blocks) is done by lower layers.
