[Coco] Floppy drives

[Andrew]

While it may not work with a CoCo, it might work OK under emulation. I 
am pretty sure in my "coco emulation box", which runs Caldera OpenDOS 
(and has most of the standard DOS CoCo emulators on it), I have a 1.2mb 
floppy installed. I set the BIOS (IIRC) to expect a 720K drive, and my 
emulators work fine with it (reading and writing floppies that can be 
read/written to on a real CoCo, which in my current case is a CoCo 3).

Something to think about and maybe try...?
