I'm trying to get a uVAX to read rainbow ms-dos diskettes, but they seem to
have a different format from what standard ms-dos books say the format is.
Supposedly, starting from track 0, sector 1, there should be a boot sector
with a 3-byte jump command to start the opsys up, followed by a bunch of
info such as a opsys name, #tracks, #sectors/track, #bytes/sector, 
#directory entries, etc.

Does anyone know where to find this information on the rainbow ms-dos
diskettes?
