Hi all,
thanks for all replies!
The answer to my original question seems to be clear:
IDE disks are _NOT_ supported by any current version of DU.
However, there is a lot of work done in this area and probably will be
supported in future (next) release. All this is true for disks up to ~8GB.
Bigger disks have another sort of problems ... (if someone interested, I
can forward much more detailed explanation from DEC/Compaq developer).
Again thanks for all replies!
Best regards,
Lubos
