I have a damaged PCT which can no longer access the floppy port(s).
is there a way I could create a DOS partition on a GS hdd and then get the
thing to boot MessyDos off the GS, either directly or after booting the
Start Up floppy on the Apple 3.5 drive ?

also is it possible to get files from the PC to the MSDOS partition (file)
via Appletalk and diskless operation ? or is that what MUG does ?
