Thanks for the advice. After a few hours'
fiddling I've got the drive
reading/writing reliably. Now to find some 400k images of mac software
that'll run on a 128k :).
One of these days one of my tuits will be other than rhomboidal, and I'll put
System 7.5 on the 6100 in my storage locker (since that's the last version of
Mac OS that will deal with 400K disks) to run disk copy and create those
images. I still have the original MacWrite and MacPaint floppies that came
with my 128K, along with a lot of other good stuff (like the Banana PC 6000 Jr.
emulator for the Finder, and a CLI that would only run on a 68000).

Cool stuff - let me know if you ever get that done. (Or if you suspect
you'll never have time, I have a IIfx here that's all set up for such a
task, and I'm in the Seattle area ;).
Thanks,
Josh
