What are the best kind of disks to use with a 1571 in 128 mode, double sided
single density or double sided double density?  I am having problems formatting
and using some brand new double density disks, and I am thinking that maybe
I need single density.  I know with IBM's you will have trouble if you double
density when you should have used single and vise-versa, and I assume it is
the same for the Commodore, but there is no mention of which type to use in
the 1571 User Guide.  Thanks.
