In support of the Goodwill Games in Seattle (that's supposed to make you 
want to help, it snagged me ;-) ),
There is a donated Convergent MiniFrame running SysV 2.0, or something
close to it.  We are gathering data on various donated PC-clones.
The Convergent has a 5 1/4" diskette, driven by a WD2797 that I know is
physically capable of read-write of MSDOS 360K diskettes, since the same 
diskette hardware under the Convergent CTOS has an MSWRITE and MSREAD utility.
Not for UNIX however.
I need either a program or some portion of 'c' source that might get me 
started in that direction.
The drive is normally 720K, 96TPI but only double density (unlike the 3B1).
We're currently transferring via Kermit from the one PC at the central site.
