MS-DOS FST can't handle volumes larger than 2.88MB. Yes, there
are 2.88MB PC floppies that the BlueDisk card can handle via the
MS-DOS FST.
For larger volumes, you need the MUG! desk accessory. It is
shareware and an evaluation version is available on the ftp servers
like ground.ecn.uiowa.edu (look in apple16 in the System and
Desk Accessories/NDA section).
