I'm not aware of one to specificially transfer discs from a Beeb (like XFER 
etc.) There are terminal emulators such as Nettle etc. but I don't know which 
ones work on the Iyonix. 

I think your best bet would be to connect a 5.25" drive to the Iyonix and hope 
it works. I've done this with my RiscPC with success. I have lots of RISC OS 
programs for reading ADFS and DFS discs.

Cheers,

Mike.
