What it is is an I/O channel controlled by the host.
The host provides an
address and a select, in addition to which it provides a read or write
strobe, and the interface, which is implemented at the target device,
I know that.
... and that's EXACTLY why I'd expect the
thing to decline to assert IOCS16-
when it's conditioned for 8-bit operation as the standard suggests. I am
beginning to see that there's a lot of doubt that drive manufacturers
actually implemented this mode, and I certainly see the logic behind that
belief.
When I tried to use set-8bit IO_16 did respond as it did for 16bit
default. Tha and I was loosing every oher byte.
Please edit messages, I'm running at work over a really turkey telnet link
and editing is painful, even wholesale deletion can be slow.
