Berkeley Lines: 25 I lost the thread on how to format your hard drive so you can get it to be recognized by a Mac and Spectre 128. My only hope of getting any files to D my computer is by transferring using a hard drive, so I erased a 60 meg disk and when formatted on a Mac it won't read on the spectre and vice versa. Is there a foolproof way of getting It to read and write on both? D I don't even care if there is no TOS partition on the disk. Does it matter which atari formatting/partitoning software one uses on the atari end (ICD, supra)? My chance to use the CD rom at work is going to evaporate D replies through e-mail. I have access to most formatting software on the Mac so if there is a fairly bulletproof method I'd like to hear about it. soon so if there is a fairly bulletproof method I'd like to know about it.
