Title: Please help with any E2 disk in UK
Post by: kTracker on November 30, 2009, 12:57:20 AM
Dear All,
After few years of dreaming on E2 I finally bought my one. I'm going to pick up it on the next week in UK. But seller does know nothing about this synth and he doesn't have any 5.25 disk for it. I already have few clean 5.25 diskette DD and HD and also PC 5.25 drive but just realized that it's impossible to make an image on PC. (thanks for this forum) Could anybody in UK help me to get my first 5.25 disk just to start E2? I'll come with my diskette, I just need to make it "bootable" on your E2.
Thanks in advance. Andrei.

Hi Andrei, wherabouts in the UK are you? PM me your address and I'll send you a disk in the post.

BTW, the floppies you need must be DS (double sided) DD (double denisty). HD (high density) ones don't work.  Usual PC 5.25 drives don't format the disks correctly either, it's pretty unique on the EII.

Anyway, a single floppy should get you booted up so long as everything is working OK.
