Re: XM1541 with Debian



I've got the cable and the connection of the integrated parallel port - on the mainboard of PC.

So I'd like to only know about the configurations.

Those are considered obsolete because they require a parallel port.
Nowadays people use the ZoomFloppy, which is a USB device:

However, the software used with the ZoomFloppy (opencbm) also works with
the older devices.

Here are instructions for building it on Linux:

There is also a newer version:

For further information, see "ZoomFloppy Users" on groups.google.com.
