Has anybody
ever ripped the Low Level formatter
from the XXDP+ diskpack and put the needed components
onto a floppy (of some sort)?
I'm contemplating attempting to do this myself,
but in case it's been done already, I'd just as
soon as not re-invent the wheel.
It's doable. You need to create a bootable XXDP disk and copy the
required formatter to it. not much more than that required.
I figured as much; I was just probing to see if anyone had already
done it.
BTW-- Are RL02's a maintainance nightmare? Do the advantages
of these drives outweigh the problems (not to mention their *size*,
or are they simply not worth it?
