Forgive me if I answer my own question, but how do you format a HD partition in MFS mode? Going to the format option under Spectre 2.65, thr MFS box is greyed-out. Was this option added later (in say 3.0) or is something just screwy with my setup? BTW I'm on a MegaSTe/TOS2.05 if that matters any. Any help would be appreciated (transverting to HD directly would be a LOT nicer, especially with some of those files (like a Wizardry-type clone) that are 1 meg in HQX/SIT format (just a *bit* too big to fit on a 800k disk)...
