We've gotten around the formatting issue by formatting SSSD using ImageDisk
on a regular PC (with a floppy controller that supports single density/FM,
of course). If you want RX02 media there's an XXDP routine to upconvert
RX01s to RX02s.
Thanks,
Jonathan

I suspect that they weren't formatted to the 3740 spec (26/128 FM).
ISTR that the RX02 doesn't have formatting abilities.
The other possibility is that the disks were DS rather than SS
(different index aperture position).

Well, would you believe it. It was the disks
after all. I can't believe
they are all bad!
I can believe it.
Were they "bad"?
Or just not what they were labelled as being?
