[Coco] USB floppies,

[Phill Harvey-Smith]

Hi,

For the person that was asking about using a USB floppy with am machine 
already containing 2 drives.....

I have just had a play having borrowed the USB floppy from work (when I 
eventually managed to locate a driver for it for Win98), it seems to 
work fine, and is just assigned another drive letter as any USB drive 
would be (F: in my case), you can't boot from it but it seems to be ok 
for data. It of course probably would not work for reading CoCo / Dragon 
floppies, but I guess that's what you'd use the "real" floppies for.

If you want me to test under XP/Linux I can do that whilst I have it but 
I see no reason why that would not work also.

Hope that helps.

Phill.
