Does anyone have a copy of a circuit for converting a standard 5 1/4 " floppy
drive for use on the Amiga.  I know you need to latch the motor select, but
I don't  know how to set the ID value for the drive type request.  I have
lots of room in the external box, so a multiple chip circuit is not a
problem.

Thanks in advance,
-ethan
