Re: Floppy mount error
Wow. No Floppy Driver? I'm shocked. But I also have
no idea how difficult it would be to write a driver.
Must decline the opportunity to write my own. My C's
rusty and I'd probably have to learn assembly (yikes).
Guess I'll use netatalk until I get my SE/30 an
ethernet card. I'm assuming there is an ethernet card
driver. Right?
Thanks for the info.
