G'day Tony Ormsby, In a message on  , you said :


 TO> Laurie;
 TO> The system has a controller for the HDD which incorporates 
 TO> the 360K 5.25" FDD  which I want to replace with a 1.2Mb 

Unusual for an XT. 

As I explained in my netmail message. It is not possible (without special
controller) to operate a 1.2 or 1.4 floppy on an XT.

You would be far better upgrading it to a 286AT or better.

 TO> FDD. I am not sure what format the HDD is. (porbably MFM).
 TO> Regarding Netmail, I will approach Sysop regarding access 
 TO> to Netmail facility.

The rules for obtaining this Echo inlude providing netmail access.


                                        Laurie
