I doubt it is my PCc3.5 program that causes the error, as the PCf3.5 and the
PCc3.5 programs are exactly the same with the exeption of one line. They
were compiled under Lattice 4.0 and I don't think Lattice generates 68020
incompatible code. I wonder if someone with a A2620 has successfully managed
to make the original PcFormat work.
Anyway, I have the sources for PCc3.5 and PCf3.5 here, in case someone with
a 68020 wants to take a look at them.

Regards,

Werner

There is a neat patch program for the PCformat program that comes on the
WorkBench Extras diskette. The patch allows the PCformat program to
format a 3.5" floppy in DF0: or DF1: in IBM 360K format. Used in 
conjunction with the 3.5" patch program for the PCcopy program, I have 
found them extemely useful porting files back and forth between my
Amiga 2000 and laptop. 

However, since installed the A2620, the 3.5" PCformat program doesn't
work. It still works in 68000 mode, but not in 68020 mode. I wonder if
anyone knows of a later version of the patch. I believe I am using V1.0.
