Supported Media

The ChorusOS product supports the following hardware, although not necessarily for all target platforms:

Flash memory

Flash device support is implemented using Flite 1.2. Flash support allows you to use only MS-DOS file systems on supported flash devices.

IDE hard disk drives

Supported hard disk drives must be connected to an IDE, ST506 or ESDI compatible disk controller.

RAM disk memory

RAM disk support allows you to create disk-like entities and use file systems in random-access memory.

SCSI hard disk drives

Selected SCSI hard disk drives and SCSI-PCI I/O processors of the NCR53C8xx family are supported.

SCSI CD-ROM drive

SCSI CD-ROM disk drives are supported.

The ChorusOS file system requires that you use special device driver files to read from and write to these devices. See "Special Device Driver Files" and special(7S) for details.
