- I don't know anything about 1.8Meg disks, but if you want to read
- 1.4MB disks or 2.8MB disks, you can try the GoldenGate-Bridgeboard which
- exists in a 386SX and an 486??-Version. Both can be euqipped with a
- floppy controller-chip on board, which can handle 2.8MB-drives and
- others (1.4MB disks can even be read on normal Commodore-HD-Disk-Drives from
- with CrossDos).
