IDE can also be connected to a PC. That's the reason why it only supports 32
MB partitions yet (for PC compatibility). However, under Windows '98, set
the drives to read-only mode, because otherwise it will make changes to your
partition table etc... pretty nasty. In a DOS-environment (not a DOS box!)
however, you can simply copy files to your MSX.
And about the double XCOPY suggestion, somehow I don't think it will be very
useful when transferring files over a serial link. Somehow...
