Back to the original subject:
I have IMD chugging away merrily on the Compaticard and, thanks to some
advice from Dave, can use it as the secondary controller.
Now, I'm trying to figure out how to format a SSDD diskette for the Xerox.
They use a screwy format where track 0 is FM 128 bytes/sector (26 x 128)
and all the others are MFM 256 bytes/sector (26 x 256).
Is there a way I can kludge through this with IMD? Or, do the Xerox
system utilities actually reformat track 0 when you sysgen (in which case,
it really doesn't matter what track 0 is configured as)?
