- Is there exist a MiNT capable floppy disk formatter (ie: one that can
- be run as a bg process)
-
- In my travels thru ftp, I havent seen one, but am sure one must exist,
- as its such a wonderful idea.
-
- If not, I would like to write my own. I assume that the code is resident
- in GEM and/or TOS, and would like to know how to call it. My ideal
- would be something like:
-
- $ mkfs -density filesys
-
- Where -density would be single or double sided, and high density for
- those lucky enough to have it, and filesys would be a floppy disk
- designator.
-
- Thanx
