Can anyone help me with a small problem I have:
I have a "Gold Card V2.49" (and "ICE v2.1 EIDERSOFT (C) 1985 D.
Jones") with ED (3.2M) drives.
Trying to format HD (1.44M) discs goes through the motions to end up
with no change to the data on the actual disc - checking out the
"formatted" disc in the other drive shows no data change; this has
*never* worked (pretending they are DD (720K) by covering the HD hole
and they format ok to 720K!). I haven't tried to re-format my ED (3.2M)
discs.
On using direct access to the HD discs (via:
OPEN #ch,"flp1_d2d"
PUT #ch\(sector + side*256 + track*65536),data$
) *will* change the data on the disc (so if anyone can give me the 1.44M
disk format I could write my own proggy to convert doMeSDOS format to QL
format).
Thanks
Robert
