To be perfectly honest, I was actually planning on using diskmaker/imagemaker from sheppyware,
then just use a standard comms package (which I'm sure I have one of in amongst the several hundred disks that came with this 2gs) to push the disks to and from the pc.
That way I can do 2mg format 3.5 inch disks as well (in case anyone wants any of those).
Regards
Aaron
