So there's no OS or menu present when the FZ is turned on?
Going off memory here, but don't think there's an OS disk in my
collection, sorry. Other keepers of the FZ-flame may be able to help,
though.
Speaking of the FZ-20m, I've been talking w/ Larry T. lately in
regards to replacing our respective FZ disk drives. Rainer's site
seemingly has a lot of info, but isn't terribly straightforward on
replacement instructions - lost in translation, perhaps?

Has anyone on-list actually successfully replaced their drive??
BTW, I picked up an FZ repair manual recently. One diagnostic trick I
was previously unaware of was to hold the 'Display' button down while
powering up. A disk tool and LCD/display tool show up in the opt
software section. Works on FZ-10/20m, but dunno about the FZ-1.
Gave me just enough info to tell me my current drive is a POS. ;-)
