Glen,
1. Are you sure that your Oz will only read single density? Most of the
ones that I've found have been upgraded to read both SD and DD.
2. I have some Oz disks that I think are single density. I'll bring them
over when I come. If you find something that will copy/create SD disks let
me know!

I snagged a very clean Osborne at the Junk Fest today
but no disks. I
thought I could use 22disk on my Wintel box but then found out the Oz is
single density and this Wintel box won't write single-density. Okay, so I
can use MFDISK10 on my Kaypro 10 to generate a bootable Oz, disk right?
Well, MFDISK10 is missing in action. Hmm. So I found and downloaded
MFDISK10 from the 'net, put it on a Kaypro disk, ran the program, and got
as far as "use the arrow keys to move around," but the arrow keys do not
move the cursor, so I am unable to select a disk type from the menu. Hmm.
Broken arrow keys? So, I fired up WordStar and the arrow keys work fine in
WS.
So, I need help in either:
1 -- finding out why the arrow keys don't work in MFDISK10
or
2 -- getting some other program to run on my Kaypro which will create Oz
disks
or
3 -- obtaining some Osborne disks (last choice)
TIA,
Glen
