I have just started to fool around with a 4331-2 (and 3830), and the
IPL floppy is just plain tired. Not the drive, but the floppy media
itself! But then, what can one expect from a 30 year old disk.

Anyway, is there anyone out in IBM land that can write a 23FD 8 inch
floppy anymore? It is an odd format (the original, actually) of 80K or
so, and the drives are almost always read only - including mine. I
know there were some independent resellers and such that modified the
drives for writing. Does anyone know of any?
