Is not the XXDP monitor an RT-11 system ?
If it is, why can't FLX see the files on the disquette ?
Does it mean that I will no be able to read an RT-11 (not XXDP)
disquette under XXDP ?


Any input welcome.
Best regards,
  -Georges.

    XXDP file system is NOT the same as RT-11 or DOS.
    
    And as far as I know you cannot read RT-11 disks with XXDP.
