| If somebody has sources for these patches, I'd be willing to give it a shot.
I keep running into occasions where I need to read PS/2 or Toshiba 3.5" disks
with the latest "BUG FREE" ;^} control software from vendors. and can't
always get access to a laptop when I need it. Come to think of it, I can't
get access to my Amiga half the time either - but that's a different story.

| 2054.2 | Look at transactor | GLORY::SPATOULAS | George Spatoulas @FAC | Thu Dec 29 1988 19:43 | 21 |

There was an interesting article on the last (3rd issue of Amiga
transactor) on the issue of Bridgecard.
You have the same problem when you attach the 1020 on the Bridge side and
try to format a 3.5 disk for 720K. The answer to this problem was
suggested to use:
driveparm=/D:01 /F:02 /H:2 /S:9 /T:80
on the config.sys file.
Now the PC utils I would try to use /H:02 /S:9 /T:80 params since this is the
difference for the 720K formated drives.
I hope it helps. I have not had the chance to use the PCutils yet.

Sorry I do not know what happened to my reply but here it again.
The MS-DOS system, looks for a file called "config.sys" in your default
directory (or COMSPEC has it defined as), if that file exists will define
system parameters as they are defined in that file. This is the file you
specify how many files do you want to have open at once (i.e. files = 30 )
or how many buffers do you want on your system, or you can specify to use
the ANSI.SYS for screen handling.
In that file you can pur the parameters as described on the -.2 reply.
I hope this help.
...gss...
