Hi guys

 

The port is going well. 

 

I’m working on the FD502 library at the moment.

 

I will have a problem testing the physical FD support so my question is:

 

Is this support still needed?

 

Can I just drop it?

 

If not


 

I am looking at a Panasonic JU-455-5 AAG 360K 5 ¼ PC/XT on the web for sale.
As new condition US $45 + shipping.

 

Can anyone recommend a FDD that will read CoCo disks on a PC.

 

My oldest PC is an ASUS P5W DH Deluxe (2006) which has floppy support.  It’s
got a 3.5” but not a 5.25”.

 

Regards

 

Walter
