I plugged the Pinnacle Sierra up to the Cube and it mounted
both DOS and Mac formatted disk without a problem and I was able to
read files and such off of them easily. So far attampts at
initializing them have failed though, even using 'disk -i /dev/rsd1a'
to try to initialize the raw device. The system retrieves all of the
info but errors out, making the disk unreadable. All of my 3M disks
are 512bytes/sector vice 1024...could this be a problem for NeXTstep?
I didn't have to modify the disktab file for it to recognize the
drive/media.
