Frank,
As far as I know, everyone's OSK (and many OS9) drivers can handle almost any
format these days. CoCo, ST, MW, hi-density... whatever the floppy chip being
used is capable of accessing.
I think Mike was (certainly I was) simply wondering about the rest of the
details on the format you've been shipping all these years... that is, what was
the sector offset and track 0 density?
Nothing earthshattering ; and nothing to do with any specific capability;
it was just that we two dummies couldn't get our CoCos to read those disks
(because we hadn't fully figured them out... which is why he mentioned that
perhaps more info might have to be placed on OSK disk labels ... maybe not).
best - kev
