Hi,
i'm currently trying to initialize my HP9133L with the HFS file system,

executing MKHFS only
runs into an integer overflow exception ...
I've run into sitauations like this. It SEEMS like some OS will only run
on certain machines and will give errors like this if they're run on other
(lesser?) CPUs. I wasn't seriously interested in the bigger HP 9000/300s so
I never pursued the matter further.
... i've not used one of the 9000/300 bigger
machines, but a "common" HP 9836C.
I thought, that it might be an issue with the harddisk size of the 9133L.
I tried several partition sizes, but everytime, the same failure occurs, so replacing the
40 MB drive with a smaller one might not be successful too.
I found an older Basic version 5.x. With this one, i was able to create a HFS volume,
that can be somehow accessed by my Pascal version: i can see the directories, but
accessing files will lead to an integer overflow again :(
What Pascal version is required to gain HFS compatibility with Basic 6.4 ?
What's the latest version of HP Pascal, that's available (i saw somewhere a
reference
to 3.25), is there a chance to get a copy ?
Thanks Bernd
