I just built the SDLTRS software in Debian 8 - 32 Bit, and have it working with a Aerocomp SS/DD 5.25"
floppy drive. I did have to configure the Floppy in Linux (Debian 8) for the TRS180 Floppy.
Floppy definitions are defined in /etc/mediaprm in Debian.
/etc/mediaprm
"TRS180":
SS DD sect=18 ssize=256
$ lsblk
$ getfdprm /dev/fd0
$ setfdprn -p TRS180 /dev/fd0
$ getfdprm /dev/fd0
$ lsblk
$ sudo ln -s TRSDIAG2.DMK disk4-0
$ sudo ln -s /dev/fd0 disk4-1
Then sdltrs boots TRSDIAG2.DMK and I can format :1 and Backup :0 :1
with everything working properly. The floppy boots correctly.
