Re: All things ,Corvus and Constellation

[jakef <appleII@freek.net>]

I think these are for the HD, I have only one of them the apple
version,

I would love a copy of them, any format would be grate.

if you like I might be able to help you get your drive working,

that flashing state was how mine was, but I was able to recover it.

more then happy to relate how I got mine working.

do any of the labels have Constellation on them?

thanks.
