Anyone know of a PD (or reasonable commercial) package > to do such? I believe there is a program in the OS-9 SIG on CompuServe that will handle MS-DOSoid floppies. Southeast Media (the folks who put out *68 Micro Journal*) also sell some utilities for that purpose. If you are running some version of D.P. Johnson's SDISK3 device driver, then you can buy MSF from Clearbrook. MSF is an MS-DOS file manager which you can use with MS-DOS floppies the way you'd use RBF with OS-9 floppies. There may be RSDOS programs that do what you want, but I don't know of them. (Never had the urge to find out.)
