Eric,
The problem is not so much the drivers, but the hardware. None of the CoCo
disk controllers that I am aware of support 1.44 meg disks. I vaguely remember
someone coming up with a hack for one on the current controller crop, but can't
remember who or any details. Once you get around that problem, then you need
to hack th edriver to support the higher data transfer rate for these drives.
So the problem is not impossible to overcome, just that are the rewards worth
all the effort it takes?
Mark
