Re: CMI Explorer & 4GB

2004-11-03 by David J. Wilson

Chris -
didn't you get a copy of the 11.39 OS floppy to
resolve your 4GB format commands issues ?   
I seem to recall your thread on the topic and we discussed 
what was needed to do it.  I formatted 4 external SCSI 4GB
HD's when I booted my 9.34 CMI with the 11.39 boot floppy.

for backups & auditioning, I agree CMI Explorer is great !
I'm glad Rob is still around and updating it !  Still
looking for that .WAV import feature :-)  then I'll still haggle
with him for .WAV export, but one thing at a time :-)

cheers
David
