#: 19550 S9/Utilities 31-Dec-93 19:05:05 Sb: Scred Crashes fixed Fm: David Breeding 72330,2051 To: All Anyone using "scred" has probably encountered that awful bug where the system will crash about any time an ALT+KEY combination is pressed, as well as F1.. really any MSB-set character. I finally dug in and found it (I think). Just fixed it last night, and tried all kinds of combos & no crashes. Here is a modpatch file to fix it in memory, if you have the save utility (I believe a version is available online if not(???)). Simply cut between the cut lines and save to a file (say.."scredpatch"). Then with scred in memory, enter the cmd "modpatch scredpatch". Then save it. If you have save shell+, save to an alternate file and then merge {thisfile} >-/dd/cmds/scred and you will still have the original originate date. This patch fixes the bug, increments the Edition #, and updates the version # (screen printout) from 4.0 to 4.1. *------------- CUT HERE --------------- * Fixes bug in "scred" where alt-key crashes ??? l scred c 0012 3c 3d c 05db 2c 24 c 05f1 2e 22 c 05f7 2f 23 c 108d 30 31 v *-------------- CUT HERE ---------------- If you do not have the save ability, you might create a B09 procedure to open a copy of "scred", and with SEEKS and PUTS of these chars, you can modify it. In this case, you will need to change the CRC (the last 3 bytes) to $6E, $42, $88. Hopefully, this will fix the prob...

We have a 68030 based data acquisition computer running OS-9 and I would like to be able to NFS mount a drive on a Unix platform in the same area. The UNIX machine would be the server for several other DOS-based machines as well. The documentation that we received is very lacking on this area. Thanks for the help.

You must be specific about wheter you use NFM or NFS to mount a drive located on the Unix-system. NFM is only OS-9 to OS-9 network where NFS is 'Network File System' defined by SUN-computers and complete different from NFM. regards ole@danelec.dk There is 1 Reply. #: 19569 S9/Utilities 10-Jan-94 07:53:44 Sb: #19563-#NFM Setup/Operation Fm: Charles Hahn 72317,1510 To: ole hansen 100016,3417 (X) Ole, I would like the OS-9 system to be able to NFS mount a drive on the UNIX platform. It is beginning to look like I need to get some special NFS software for the OS-9 system to do what I want to do. Where do I get it. Thanks again.

Microware has both NFM and NFS(client and server) and it works with both PC's and unix. regards ole@danelec.dk P.S.

I'm new to the OS-9 forum and would like to check out some of the offerings in the library, but can't un-archive the many .AR files. If it makes a difference, I'm running OS-9 on a Philips CD-i 605 player. Thanks in advance!

As far as PD compilers go, check out the GCC files in LIB 12, you'll need the stock OSK assembler and linker, though. -Bill- #: 19838 S9/Utilities 23-Mar-94 07:37:02 Sb: #19833-AR utility Fm: Pete Lyall 76703,4230 To: Mark Logan 73354,1245 Mark, AR68.BIN is a compiled version - just download, stick it in your cmds directory, and set the execute attributes and you're ready to go.

However, I hosed up the description of the 68K version. Can you fix it, or do I have to re-upload?
