     I'd be surprised if it is Amigo and uses HFS. What kind of drive is it? I can tell you for certain what kind of command set it uses.

    You asked me about this a few days ago but I've been busy and forgot to reply. I have a document called "HP Flexible Disk Drive Command Set" that I'm pretty sure contains a description of the Amigo command set. It's an appendix to the HP 9114 disk drive service manual. It's 36 pages long. I can send you a copy or I'll send it to Al K. or anyone else that wants to scan it and post it on the web somewhere.
