Hello
Does anyone know why a disk from NT cannot be read from Solaris 2.8 FDD? I have no problems with 3.5” floppies from Windows ME or 95 but when I try and transfer data from an NT box the File Manager sees the FDD but no files. The command line is the same. If I take that disk to my ME machine it is ok? Any thoughts?
Thanks
 
Make sure the floppy is formatted FAT32 and not NTFS Too bad I.T. is not cash business
