If you use the recently posted PCPATCH program, you CAN mount the A1020 under
AmigaDos AND use the PCUtil programs. I do all the time:

1> mount DF2: (verify its existence)
   ...
2) Insert PC diskette in the A1020.
3) run PcC3.5 or PcF3.5 (PCPATCH programs), select DF2: in the pcpatch window.
4> When finished with the PCUtil, replace the PC diskette with the AmigaDos
   diskette, select "CANCEL", and you are back to having an AmigaDos mounted
   DF2:.

Don't know why, but selecting "CANCEL" gets you back to your AmigaDos disk
quicker than selecting the exit gadget. It appears that the exit gadget does a
diskchange before exiting & it takes PCCopy a while to handle a diskchange with
an AmigaDos disk in the drive (read: LONG TIME :-) ). Also, make sure you put
the AmigaDos disk back in before "CANCELLING" or you don't get your AmigaDos
disk made available (you have to put the PC disk back in, run pcpatch prog, put
AmigaDos disk back in, select "CANCEL" ... Phew!).

Thanks to the creator of PCPATCH, I can actually have online utilities now!
