neither am I... IDEbios 2.00 was already available since June,18th
But Sunrise doesn't want to take the risk of customers screwing up their
PC FAT16 partitions and endless questions and telephonecalls of
customers with not enough experience.
So they are waiting for the new IDEFDISK program and they will release
everything together. I got IDEFDISK verion 3.0 ready a few weeks ago; it
features userspecified variable sized partitions and of course FAT16
format when the partitionsize exceeds approx. 32MB.
Nevertheless there seems to be a bootproblem with DOS2.3x on Turbo-R
when using partitions made with the new fdiskprogram. On MSX2 with
DOS2.2x everything works perfect.

I have very limited internet access these months (and thus slow
communication between me and the sunrisetesters), so you will have to
wait some more weeks till the last problems have been solved.

Holiday Greetings,
Jon

*nag*nag* I can use FAT16 on my MSX and you ? *nag*nag* ;)
