http://www.30below.com/~zmerch/classics/driveformats.html It's new, it's rough, it's mainly to figure out what kinds of data we need here -- right now, I can see that we need 2 spreadsheets; one for physical drive formats, and one for OS layouts. (and yes, it's evil HTML -> StarOffice 6.0 "saved as .html". I ain't goin' fer pretty yet... ;-) ) Believe me, I realize that it's not anywhere perfect... so I'm asking for more input for whatever (many things) I've forgotten to include. If you have info for different disk formats, please feel free to include them, but please be aware that they may not be integrated until the format is more solid. Jay, I dunno if the addresses are munged in the archives... so I'm going to err on the side of caution here. I have 1 mailing address that as yet gets no spam (so has no spam-filter), and its: {my Ham radio callsign} @30below.com. (If you wanna go the hard way to find it, go here: http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/searchLicense.jsp and search for "Merchberger" and look for my active one.) If not, I'll use the phonetic alphabet, hopefully spammers haven't figured that one out yet for the spiders: Alpha Bravo Ait Kilo Kilo That address gets very little email (unlike my main address which gets around 500 emails/day) so I'll see things quickly there... and also, the main email is personal/work/mailer-daemon/root/catchall/whatever and also has a spamfilter, so I might miss one email there. Rare, but it can (and unforch, does) happen. This way, guaranteed not to be missed in any way. ;-) Thanks, Roger "Merch" Merchberger -- Roger "Merch" Merchberger | A new truth in advertising slogan sysadmin, Iceberg Computers | for MicroSoft: "We're not the oxy... zmerch(a)30below.com | ...in oxymoron!"
