I have some questions concerning I-Drive, sold until recently by
Suitable Solutions.  Yesterday, I formatted a disk on an IBM PC
running DOS 3.3, wrote some files on it using my Rainbow (running
DOS 3.1b), and then tried to read the files just written back to the
IBM PC.  Unfortunately, I get a 'General Failure error reading
drive A' message issued by the PC.  This has happens the other way, too.
That is, on Rainbow-formatted disks written on the the PC and read
back onto the Rainbow.  Would someone tell me what I'm doing wrong ?
