Please please someone help. I desparetely need to read IBM floppies. I posted about a week ago but no one has replied yet. I can not seem to get my station to recognize ibm floppies. After I use BuildDos to make the disk the workspace pauses for about 5 minutes and then says the floppy is unreadable. This is what I found in the console: Bad disk label magic number Bad disk label magic number Bad disk label magic number Bad disk label magic number fd: UNABLE TO READ DISK LABEL Apr 15 14:55:05 sphincter kern_loader: kern_loader: server dosfs giving up waiting for executable /mach Apr 15 14:55:05 sphincter kern_loader: kern_loader: server dosfs giving up waiting for executable /mach Apr 15 14:55:05 Workspace[1676]: DOS mount attempted and failed on device fd0 (status = -7) So what is going on? I don't think I erased something by mistake and have no idea what is wrong.
