You need to find a copy of a file called RX50.ARC (Of course these days it may be RX50.ZIP or RX50.LZH) The package includes a driver you put in CONFIG.SYS and a program that5 will let you put MS-DOS directories on pre-formatted RX50s. What you end up with is complete read/write compatability between your AT-style 1.2meg floppy drive and your Rainbow's RX50 drives. So check your favorite Rainbow-oriented BBS for the package named above. If you can't locate it, drop another note in this echo and I'll tell you the name and number of a BBS that does have it for sure. It's worth it. --- * Origin: SYS$OUTPUT BBS * Library, PA * 412-854-0511 * (Opus 1:129/38) ------------------------------
