DONE.
the 1.2M controller in the PC will operate MOST (those wishing to list
obscure exceptions,...) 8" "industry standard" drives, probably including
ones borrowed from the minc.
Umm... Fred, what you may not know is that a MINC-11 comes with an RX02
floppy drive - definitely not "industry standard" (unless your industry
is DEC ;-)
Personally, I'd go with the ASCII console as the easiest path.
