Hi,

I'm in a bit of a pickle - I need to be able to write an ADF image to an Amiga 880K floppy disk, but I only have an unexpanded Amiga 500, with the standard 512K of RAM.

I have the ADF files on my PC and would be able to write then (I guess in parts?) to a 720K PC-format floppy.

But then what do I do?

I have the original WB1.3 and Extras disk, if there's anything I can use on them to cobble together a cut-down boot floppy that will enable me to write ADFs...

But, is it possible on my minimal spec A500?

Cheers,

Mike.
