Re: IIgs files from PC

[Matt Jensen <no@spam.com>]

I use a Zip drive attached to a RamFAST SCSI card to do my (frequent)
PC<->IIgs shuffles.  I use 'xhfs' on my Linux machine on the PC side. 
This writes to the Zip disks in HFS format, which is both readable and
writable on the IIgs.  Anything that is important I then copy onto a
ProDOS disk due to the bugginess of the HFS FST in System 6.0.1.

This is the best way I have found.  It is very quick, though a little
spendy on the hardware side ($200+ for the card and drive.)
