double-sided drives to work with the Kaypro II?
I have received DSDD disks that were explicitly stated to have been from a
II. When was the official switch to DS? Do the earlier machines need
more than a ROM upgrade? (is side-select present?)
I'll have to pull it out and give it a complete go-over. But I think I'll
need to get some sort of disk-imaging setup going first, either Kryoflux
or Discferret as I have no boot media.
Another thing, does anyone know where I can get a replacement bail to prop
up the machine instead of resting it on the keyboard?
