I have a friend with a SCII Quantum that he formatted on an MSDOS machine (fat
mode) – he wants to mount and use it with AmigaDOS 3.1 (Like with CrossDos and
PC floppies) What does he have to do? thanks very much in advance.

Mike:
He needs to have the CrossDOS package from Consultron, for one. The version
included with AmigaDOS does not work with hard drives. Once he has that, he'll
need to use the install utility to set up a DOSDrivers entry to talk to the
drive. It isn't very difficult, once you have the program.
One caution. If the drive has been compressed by Stacker or a similiar
program, it will not be readable by CrossDOS.
