Trebisky) Newsgroups: comp.sys.dec.micro Subject: RX50 floppies on your PC/AT Message-ID: <1021@organpipe.UUCP> Date: 12 Feb 91 20:23:52 GMT Sender: news@organpipe.UUCP Organization: University of Arizona, Tucson, AZ Lines: 24 I tried mailing this, but herbert@flp.uucp didn't cut it. I have a public domain thing called RX50DRVR that I use with the 1.2 Meg drive on my AT to read (and write) the RX50 floppies from my rainbow. Works great (and especially handy because the AT is on the net). I don't know if the Pro350 RX50 drives are compatible, but I bet they are. This driver will read and write the RX50 floppies fine, but you must format them on your DEC machine. I got this anonymous FTP from somewhere ... lemmee see now. OK, I got it from drycas.club.cc.cmu.edu 128.2.232.11 on the internet. cd [anonymous.info-dec-micro] they even had the source, rx50src.zip. Of course you need the usual unzip tools to unpack the stuff (and of course you should set binary before the retrieve) let me know if you have any trouble. BTW - it isn't public domain software if the source code isn't distributed.
