While we're on the topic of 3 1/2" drives :-) I was considering
replacing my second 5 1/4" drive with a 3 1/2" drive on my Leading Edge
model M.  At the very least, it would seem that I will need to go to
DOS 3.2.  Has anyone else successfully done this before?  Does the 3
1/2" drive work with Minix?  Does DOS 3.2 work with Minix?
