My RK05's are acting up again. They first acted like this when I was
bringing them up after a 30 year nap. The symptom then was that one of the
Maindecs for disk testing would complain that it couldn't write because a
CE disk was in the drive! (Which brings up the quesiton: Why would it
think that? Is there a wire on the disk interface bus that is pulled down
when a either a CE disk (how??) or else the disk alignment suitcase is
plugged in?)
Anyway, now that I can run RKUTIL I have a new problem that just happened
this weekend. I can no longer select option 4 (read/write test). It
simply reprints the prompt, no error message at all! I assume this is the
CE present problem rearing it's ugly head again. RKTUTIL worked fine up
until this weekend.
Anyway, I'd like to look at the RKUTIL source but can't find it anywhere.
Does anyone have a pointer to this?
Also, if anyone knows what triggers the CE present condition I'd like to
know about that too.
Thanks,
Marc
