: : Hello!

: : Please can you tell me, how can i get a BIOS version, which
: : works with my ULTRASTOR 12F-24 ESDI-Controller an my SEAGATE
: : ST4767E harddrive. I have BIOS-Version -008 and -009, but with
: : both i get an error reading PList for all heads.
: : I can LLFīd the harddrive but fdisk always not stored.
: : Iīve tried all setup variations but nothing works.
: : If you can send me binary files of needed BIOS, i can make
: : new EPROMS by myself (i own an EPROMER)

: Hi, I don't have much info on this one... I have
: attached the link to the 12f directory of the ftp
: site. The files 12f-bin.zip and 12f009.zip should
: contain the latest eprom files. Be sure to read any
: readme files in that archive.

: Hope that helps, Ben

Hello, i have used the file 12f-bin.zip to burn a new BIOS (it contains
Version 012 for firmware and 010 for BIOS) but i canīt get any difference.
When i use fdisk 1st time i get 642MB, next time fdisk display 643MB
and another time i get 478MB - it seems that the controller cannot
read correct disk-information, but with the LLFīd Procedure i get always
the correct physical disc-parameters.
the parameters of my drive are:
SEAGATE ST4767E 1398Cyl, 15Hds, 65SPT with 4800rpm
my non-ULTRASTOR ESDI-Controller works with this drive, but i like to use
the 12F-24 or to forget this drive...+
