Bug ID: 51016 Summary: USB Floppy Manager: Fails to recognize USB drive Product: Wine Version: 6.6 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: sramey40@gmail.com Distribution: ---
Created attachment 69862 --> https://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=69862 console output
System Info: Arch Linux 5.11.2-arch1-1 wine --version = wine-6.6
This is the software for managing the Gotek Floppy USB emulator. It is used to write floppy images to the USB drive for use with the Floppy emulator hardware. The issue is that the program does not see the USB drive, even though Wine has it listed in winecfg as the F: drive, and it's mounted in Linux.

Interestingly, when I run winecfg, this is the output: WINEPREFIX=/mnt/linux2/.wine winecfg wine: Read access denied for device L"\??\F:\", FS volume label and serial are not available. wine: Read access denied for device L"\??\Z:\", FS volume label and serial are not available.

--- Comment #1 from Rafał Mużyło galtgendo@o2.pl --- More likely that's related to something I consider a major *Windows* bug.
Without some extra work Windows is unable to recognize USB keys with a partition table (or at least that had still been the case in Win7) - Linux has no problem with that.
Likely the software you're referring to has some dumb check that considers that bug a feature.

--- Comment #2 from Sean sramey40@gmail.com --- I don't think that's the issue. If it is though, is this Windows only software doomed to never work on Linux?
How can I check if it is the case?

--- Comment #3 from Sean sramey40@gmail.com --- Any idea on what's going on here? I reformatted the usb drive with an "MS-DOS" partition table. Now it tells me:
[sean@sean-pc V1.23]$ winecfg 01b4:fixme:imm:ImeSetActiveContext (0x25e360, 1): stub 01b4:fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (0000000000040052, 000000000025E360): stub 01a0:fixme:imm:ImeSetActiveContext (0x25b340, 0): stub 01a0:fixme:imm:ImmReleaseContext (00000000000300A0, 000000000025B340): stub wine: Read access denied for device L"\??\D:\", FS volume label and serial are not available. wine: Read access denied for device L"\??\Z:\", FS volume label and serial are not available.
And Z: is the root filesystem, D: is probably the CDROM drive, but I don't have any CD in it, so it's not mounted in linux. It does seem to sucessfully mount the usb drive as F:
However, there's still no change in the behaviour of the software.

This is the software I'm trying to use. You can get it here, along with watch a tutorial from Phil's Computer Lab about how to use it with a USB drive: https://www.philscomputerlab.com/gotek-floppy-emulator.html
