=============================================
Using an incompatible disk with Mac-on-Linux
=============================================

   Some harddisks (in particular certain IDE disks, but also some SCSI
   disks) might not contain suitable SCSI drivers (Apple_Driver43).
   This problem can be solved by loading the driver from a file 
   image instead. 

   The recommended procedure to construct this image is now 
   described in the "IDE-howto" document. The following information 
   is provided as an alternative.

   To tell MOL to load use a file image of a SCSI driver,
   add the following line to the molrc (or .molrc) file:
 
   scsi_driver:  driver_image

   The driver_image file can be created with the 'drvcp' utility (look in the
   folder mol/util/drvcpy). The following command extracts the
   driver from /dev/sdc:

       bash$ drvcpy /dev/sdc driver_image

   Due to legal considerations, it is not possible to include a driver
   image with the MOL distribution. A driver targeted for MOL is under
   development and will be included when finished.


 Note 1:

   Unfortunately, it is not possible to use a file image of an
   Apple SCSI drivers (private information about the volumes are stored
   in the driver itself). A file image of a FWB SCSI driver are known 
   to work though.


 Note 2:

   With a working driver image, it is possible to export INDIVIDUAL
   HFS partitions:

   scsi_unit:   4   /dev/hda5 /dev/hdb3 /dev/sda7  -rw


 Note 3: 

   If /dev/sda contains a working (non-Apple) driver, then the 
   following line will also work:

   scsi_unit:   4  /dev/sda /dev/hdb3 /dev/hda5 /dev/hda7   -rw
