It was stated that MS-Dos does not recognize SS (3.5) disks.  While that may be
advertised (in fact, I thought that for a while), Thanks to the instructions
included with PC-Ditto, I have formatted 3.5" SS disks on my PC clone running
PC Dos 3.2 that work just fine on the ST.  It is done by specifying in the
config.sys file

         device=driver.sys/d:x/t:80/s:9/h:1

      where x is 0 or 1 depending on which physical drive you
      want this assigned to.

So SS 3.5 disks can be used with an IBM.  But I couldn't find this info
in the PC-Dos manual.
