Graeme,
I just thought that in all fairness I should mention that I have been using
Messy-Dos for some time and it has worked flawlessly. I use it on both
3.5" and a 5.25" disks and transfer files easily. As mentioned, you can
continue to use the drives for both Amigados and MS-dos.
The one advantage of Cross-dos is that it will let you read a MS-Dos
harddrive partition from the Amiga side. I have not been able to get this
to work with Messy-Dos.
I also had terrible trouble finding MessyDos on CIS. I couldn't think of a
keyword that would dig it up, but I seem to remember that it was in the
Amigatech section under the system-files library.
Hope this helps.
