Mike,
I wasn't sure how the driver worked and couldn't find any docs. I assumed
it worked in a way similar to the firmware updates...i.e. put the driver in
the root of the CF card. Apparently there is more to it. Do you have a
pointer to config docs for the driver?
I have no floppy disk software at all for the Apple III+. Only .dsk images
I downloaded online, so I was hoping to use the CFFA3000 to run the III and
perhaps make a few disks if the drive is working. So you're saying that
the CFFA3000 in the Apple III is different than in the Apple II. In the
II, I don't need any floppy disk software at all and can boot and run from
the CFFA....which is good because most of my floppy drives for the II are
intermittent at best. I'm not sure of the condition of the floppy drive in
the Apple III+. For the Apple III, are you saying that I cannot completely
dispose of the use of the floppy drive?
Thanks,
Win

When you say, "tried the CFFA Apple III driver," what exactly do you
mean? The driver needs to be configured properly before the III+ will
recognize the card.
Also, what do you mean when you say you have no floppy software? None
at all? As is true of any Apple III, the III+ will only boot from a
floppy disk in the internal 5.25" drive, and you will need at least an
SOS floppy with the SCP to configure the driver and run the
partitioning program.
