IIgs Newbie / Anfaenger Fragen PART TWO



Thank all of You for answering so quickly!

In the meantime, i received a copy of the original System 6.0.1
Floppies from another User and i could install the system.


it looks GREAT!!


But as soon as i got it up and running, a bunch of other Questions
arose:
 - I have a Vulcan HD Controller(Rom Version VUL 1.4GS20)sitting in
   slot 7 and an appleII SCSI Card in slot 6.
   A 20 Meg ide drive is attaced to the Vulcan controller, working,
   but slow. I would like to change this Disk to a 170 Meg Ide drive
   I took from an old 386 PC.
    - Can I take any IDE drive?
    - Can I connect two Harddisks(one as Master, one as slave)?
    - Where do I find software for low and high-level formating and
      partitioning?
    - Max. Partition sizes?
    - Any Filesystems preferred(PRODS vs. HFS)?
 
 - Is there a TCP/IP implementation (aka. TCP/IP protocol stack)
   available for the gs?
 - are there web-Browsers, a news-reader, an email program and a
   FTP client available(These are what I mainly use on the net)?


Impatiently awaiting Your answer

Dirk
