Re: [Ensoniq-VFX-SD] disk formats

2004-08-23 by hans-artmann@t-online.de

Giebler's EDE formats disks anyway when writing an image. So if you have
formatted a disk in the SD this probably correct formattig would be
destroyed as soon as you write the disk with EDE in a 'wrong' environment
(look at previous mails).

Formatting in the PC is useless since this is a completely different format.
