Guys,
Finally got an external hard drive for my IIe. Actually meant for
classic macs, the small footprint type case. 53 meg hard drive in it...
since it's standard scsi, is it possible to either
A) Use a macintosh to create a Prodos partition on it, and move the relevant
files to it?
B) Use linux to write some sort of DD image to it?
If neither of these is possible, I'll give up and order some from a2central.
Their price is right, just hate waiting on mail order stuff (even though I
must have already waited twice as long just fiddling and trying to figure
out how to do it myself).
Also, are there any 5.25 drives that the GS (ROM 1) doesn't get along with?
