[comp.sys.amiga.tech] 1.44 Meg floppy drives.

     I haven't heard anything about using the 1.44 M floppy drives on the
amiga yet. (I've been off the net for a while, so maybe this has already
been discussed.)  How hard would it be to hook one up?  Would it be as easy
as just changing the mount list?  Or would you need a new device driver and
perhaps a new controller?  Lastly, would they be 1.44 Meg, (which is to 
conveniently 2*720k or 4*360k) or would they be 2*880k or 1.76M.
     1.4M disks sure would be nice for backing up the harddisk.
