[net.micro.cpm] 5 inch disk controller

ACB.TYM@OFFICE-2.ARPA (04/13/84)

Can someone point me to an S100 non-DMA 5 inch disk controller for which 
software exists to format and write many of the popular 5 inch CP/M formats.  I 
am willing to write such software if I could be pointed to documentation of the 
various formats (would make such software available).  I have a Northstar and 
want to avoid the DMA problems though I am willing to bring the buss to new 
standards (so far I haven't had any problem with some controllers and memory 
boards).  I would like to buy the controller and software as a package if 
possible.  Thanks in advance for any info.

I have a SD-Sales Versafloppy-I board which will read/write 8"/5-1/4"
floppies and is old s100 standard which i would be willing to sell.
It is only single density, but I have used it for years as an 8" controller
with no problems at all.  I also have a myriad of other old s100 boards
which I could be induced to sell if there were any interest.
