Bill,
I'm not sure what happens if you want to partition part of an RLL drive for use
with the Amiga side, but my understanding of RLL drives is that they are
designed to meet the more severe requirements of RLL controllers, however, they
can be formatted with standard controllers. The one MAJOR glitch is that RLL
allows more storage on the drive (eg,. a 20 meg. becomes a 30 meg with RLL),
however if you format with a standard controller, you get standard capacity
(eg. the 20 megs. NOT 30 as the RLL would supply).
