[comp.os.cpm] K10 disks, and reading on XT/AT

rusty@cadnetix.COM (Rusty) (11/02/88)

Well, I hate to have to post this update, but I figured I had better.

Forget all the stuff I told you about how K10 disks were drastically
different than K4 disks. (Kaypro 10, Kaypro 4, for those not up on
what was happening)

A very fine gentleman in Kansas by the name of Richard offered to 
attempt to read the K10 disk with various programs he had, including
22DISK.  Well, 22DISK had no problems reading the K10 disk.  22DISK 
is a shareware program which has a LARGE number of disk formats it can
read.  And you can configure it to read almost any format you can 
describe, according to the documentation.  (22DISK is on SIMTEL20 
somewhere)

Another person was able to read the K10 disk I sent him with (I believe)
Uniform.

My thanks to both of you, and my apologies for having such a terrible name
memory.  (BTW, Richard, I hope to get your disks back out in the mail
sometime this week.  Will email you when I do.)
