Subject: Disc Format Program - HELP!
OK - I give up !!
Trying to get the old Beeb up and running again so as I can use the WE Adder
EPROM programmer. Problem is that I no longer have a working Acorn DFS
utilities disk so I can't format any of my floppies. Have sucessfully linked
the Beeb to the PC via a serial cable, but cant find a copy of the format
program anywhere !!. Even thought I could get around this problem by burning
a copy of the Watford DFS, but its a chicken & egg problem as I have no way
of getting this file into the Eprom programmer other than loading it from a
Disk (the ADDER doesn't deal in terms of absolute memory addresses as far as
I can see). Anyone got any suggestions ?
Pete.
