Does anyone have any idea what the diskette format is?
It's not DSDD 512
byte sectors, eg. dd won't read it on a linux box.
If its like the 1630 then the diskettes are LIF format either single sided
or double sided. Have a go at reading the disks on an MSDOS or Windows PC
using the LIFUTIL program. LIFUTIL was released by HP to allow the transfer of
data from HP LIF floppies to MSDOS systems. Initially they sold it, but now
its free.
