The A500 should be able to read MS-DOS formatted 720k diskettes for

I recently picked up an Amiga 500 on eBay. I may
have some Workbench disks
that will work with it.
In case I don't. Does anyone have advice on how I can get disk images and
make floppies from them readable by the A500?
I have PC's and Macs with floppy drives available to make the disks.
Off the top of my head, I think you'll need a Catweasel board to put in a PC.
Having just an A500 makes it more than a little difficult. I'm still trying
to find my A500, so I can see if I can get it working again. I've found the
A3000, but not its keyboard. :-(
