Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Is there any way that using this device I can format the disk in PC format as opposed to Amiga format?

Thanks again,

Ward.


When you copy the PC0 dosdriver from storage and place it in the sys:devs/dosdrivers draw any disk you insert will display 2 icons:  df0: and pc0:.  If you click on the pc0: icon and format it then it will format as a PC floppy.  Just remember to stick to a 720kb format unless your Amiga happens to have a high density drive (such as the A4000).
