[comp.unix.microport] Floppy specs needed for 386ix

jep@fantasci.UUCP (Joseph E Poplawski) (12/22/88)

Hello. A friend of mine has an HP-9000 running UNIX and we would like to trade
software via floppies.  My system is a 80386 running Interactive UNIX V.3. What
I would like to know, is from the chart below which is a list of what types of
formats he can read/write, what would be compatible with my system?  I have a
fujitsu 1.2 meg drive.

Please mail me any answers you may have (if any).  

Thanks in advance for any help you can give.
