The message XFMail.051108102257.Ted.Harding@nessie.mcc.ac.uk from (Ted Harding) Ted.Harding@nessie.mcc.ac.uk contains these words:
You'll need to do this using an already working Linux system, of course, and you'll need a blank floppy (in good shape) and a floppy drive capable of supporting the higher-density formats (1722MB in this case) -- but modern floppy drives do support this.
Ah. Got neither - or at least, I don't think I've got a 'modern' drive - this one was supplied in 1999, I think.
Still, I'll save the info for when confidence and bank balance grows.
Thanks.
