Hi,

here're the small testing programs.

They will just do a restore with spinup and measure the index pulse 
delay on the drive while the motor is running.

There's one program for drive 0, another for drive 1.

After running the program, wait for the motor of the drives to turn off, 
then press space to start the test (should take 1 or 2 sec).

Please, test the programs on your 2 drives, with or without a floppy 
inserted, and also when drive is disconnected (if you can disconnect A ? 
else it's not a big deal)

You should note than when the drive is waiting for spinup (connected 
without a floppy for example), as soon as you insert a floppy, then the 
spinup resumes and completes.

If other people have an external drive, they can report their results 
too when there's no floppy in the drive and running fdc_ip_1.prg.

In the case of my STF, the spinup completes only when the drive is 
connected and with a floppy inserted.

regards

Nicolas
