Series I Disk Format Questions

2006-10-20 by modularmoog

Hi Everyone - 

I'm trying to sort out this Series I that I've got sitting here.  I 
haven't been able to get it to load any system disks at all, using 
either drive, 2 different QFC2 cards, and even swapping in a third 
drive.  I believe that all the jumper settings are correct.  (At 
least they are according to the Series II Service Manual.

I tried to look at the disks on my IIx under QDOS and was able to 
see the contents of only 1 of the system disks.  

First off, does the Series I use the same disk format as the IIx for 
it's system disks?  I thought that there was some difference, but I 
could be mistaken.

Just to be sure, anyone have any system disks for a Series I that 
they can copy?  That would be very helpful.

And lastly, just what versions of the OS can I use with a Series I 
anyway?

Thanks,

Tim
