 I hope to use preformatted IBM disk so I don't need
to look at formatting. I've done a FDC driver for a
XT controller so I'm sure I can handle this one. It is
on a 'C186 unit. The controller is on a SBX
card. I would suspect that it does have a density
select register in hardware, similar to what was done
on AT's.
Thanks
