[Techtoolslist] Reading 9100 floppies...

[Martin White]

Ive used Omniflop / Omnidisk quite a lot in the past as I've done quite a bit with the BBC Micro. I did look at Omniflop for the 9100. I thought though that the disks were OS9? Or maybe that was the hard drives?

My original 9100 archive setup is packed away, and I can't recall the name of the floppy reader software...
