formatted floppies question

IIRC you will not get PC0:? on 3.1 (definitely not on 3.9)

PC0 autohides when a non-PC0 floppy is inserted.

Go into SYS:System and double click Format.  You'll be able to select PC0.  In the next window make sure all the boxes are unticked.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned already (I don't remember reading it).

If they are HDs then you'll need to put a bit of sellotape over the small hole on the opposite side of the label of the write protection hole.

The PCs should then be able to read it as a DD disk instead of a HD.  The Amiga can usually read them because they don't have the HD sensor pin thingy.  PCs do.

I know it's a simple thing, but they can easily be forgotten :-)
