Help !! I have a Minscribe 3570 Hard Drive (supposedly 40 meg), that I'm trying to format properly for my b2000. I've tried various combinations of surfaces, cylinders, etc, getting anywhere from 27 - 35 meg as a result. If anybody knows the "proper" parameters, I'd be much obliged. On another note, I'd like to ask a question that was probably hashed over weeks (months ?) ago on this net. Are there any differences in Kickstart 1.2 vs 1.3 OTHER than auto-booting from a HD or RAD ? I have a 2090 controller so it's probably not worth it for me if those are the only differences. The only thing I worried about is perhaps "subtle" changes (bug fixes, etc) that may have gone into 1.3 that don't effect me now but will in the future if I don't upgrade.... Thanx in advance.
