cecrowder Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 Many years ago when the ST line was new, I remember having a program that would either format an MSDos readable on the ST or would make the needed changes to an ST disk to enable it to be read in an MSDos machine. Since every MSDos system I have (including the old 486) will not format a disk in the required 360k for my ST drives, I could use this program if it can be found. Any help would be appreciated.

Thelen Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 do you need it to create your boot disk ? if so, you can create it with MAKEDISK (or of course any other st/msa file) on your pc's diskdrive, that's a special program to wite atari st compatible disks Thelen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goochman Posted June 17, 2002 Share Posted June 17, 2002 You can format 720K MSDOS disks and it will work fine with your ST. To format a disk on the ST that works on the PC requires a special program that puts the correct DOS header on the disk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
