"Drivers" is not really the correct word. Everything is in the emulator not in 68k side.

Hi,

These results are what I reported last week.

The MAKE_DIR command works, creating a file with file type 255, but any saving files to the created sub-directory, creates separate files in the root directory.

So the real question is has sQLux got the Level-2 Filesystem installed, which extends the file device driver to use sub-directories?

Form the results verifying my efforts, it seems the Level-2 Files system is not present, I do not not know how to verify this.

I had a Miracle Hard Drive (MHD) that had extensions in the MHD ROM, which must of added the Level-2 file system to QDOS.

How does Qubide add the sub-directories to the filesystem? ... or maybe it does not.

You can't really classify sQLUX file systems as "Level-1 or Level-2" - They are emulated on the host end. And as they support sub-directories on the host file system, they somehow are "Level-2". It's just that some functions of Level-2 aren't supported on all file system types, especially not on QXL.WIN-containers. Call it "work-in-progress"

Hi,

I assumed the emulator runs a QDOS ROM, that gives a standard filing system, with enhancements to run higher resolutions.

sQLux is so good, and coupled with sqluxmenu, is s good combination. I am am grateful the people that produce the software, I use sQLux before any other QL emulator.
