[Coco] weird 360K drive

[Boisy G. Pitre]

It sounds like your drive is out of alignment if it only wants to  
play with disks that it created.  Cloud-9 has the tools to realign  
drives, if you're interested.

As far as the drive spinning when other drives are accessed, this is  
normal, and in fact desirable.   This allows drive to drive copying  
to work fast since there is no need to wait for spinup when writing  
data to another drive.
