.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm iwm ,
|
|
.Nm fd
|
|
.Nd floppy disk driver for IWM and non-DMA SWIM controllers
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Cd "iwm0 at obio?"
|
|
.Cd "fd* at iwm0 drive ?"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver interfaces to the built-in and external floppy disk drives on the
|
|
Macintosh. It supports double-density media, written in
|
|
Apple's proprietary GCR format. Currently, there is no disklabel
|
|
support for the floppy drives. Instead, the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver sets up a fake in-core disklabel, using the minor device
|
|
number to select from the supported disk formats.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following formats are supported:
|
|
.Bl -column header Partition Size sides tracks sectors/track
|
|
.Sy "Partition Size sides tracks sectors/track"
|
|
a 800Kb 2 80 10 (default)
|
|
b 400Kb 1 80 10
|
|
c 800Kb 2 80 10
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
(The above table describes the logical mapping as implemented by the
|
|
driver; the physical layout of GCR floppies has 8..12 sectors per track.)
|
|
.Sh FORMATTING
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver does currently not support floppy disk formatting.

.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
interface first appeared in
|
|
.Nx 1.4 .
|
|
.Sh AUTHORS
|
|
Hauke Fath put together the beginnings of the
|
|
.Nm
|
|
driver in 1996 from the sparse documentation in "Inside Macintosh",
|
|
Neil Parker's "iwmstuff" documentation for the Apple IIgs and a long,
|
|
hard look at the .Sony driver.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The FFS code is incapable of dealing with a varying number of
|
|
sectors per track. We have to fake a mapping and so lose FFS support
|
|
for hardware parameters like transition times.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The driver only supports an obsolete format.
