[Coco] Creating a Coco Floppy in DOS

[Darren A]

For DOS and Windows 9x systems, there is DSKINI.EXE.
For Windows 2000 / XP / Vista systems there is FdRawcmd / CoCoDisk.
For Linux there is fdutils.

You can find links to all of these on the Nitros9 site:

Sadly, there is nothing for Macs unless you can obtain a CatWeasel.
