Need help baffled by FreHD setup under LDOS 5.3.1

[Chromedome45]

I am trying to setup the FreHD on my Model 4 in Model III mode. I issue the command SYSTEM (DRIVE=2, DRIVER="RSHARD5") and get an error that basically says
to issue the command exactly as I did. Confused. The FreHD is turned on etc. I have done this before many years ago. But now I can't seem to get it working.
Have also tried SYSTEM (DRIVE=2,DISABLE,DRIVER="RSHARD5") and that didn't help either. Any help appreciated.

Don't you need a /DCT after RSHARD5?

 

[Chromedome45]

No it automatically assumes that is the extension.

 

[lowen]

Yeah, correct

Ok, what is the output of the DEVICE command prior to issuing the system command?

Why do you disable the drive? SYSTEM (DRIVE=2,DRIVER="RSHARD5",ENABLE)

You disable it to make it available as a hard drive partition. and that it what the Model 4 hard drive manual said to do.

Sorry for the noise: I confused it with XTRSHARD ...

To rule out a possibly defective RSHARD5/DCT file: does it work in an TRS-80 emulator?

will try it there.
