I posted recently about problems I was having with an I-Drive
on my Rainbow.  It is the 3-1/2" version, which means the
disks are formatted to 720K.  The disk was formatted on an
IBM PS2/70 using the appropriate options in the FORMAT command
to format the disk at that density (I don't the manual in front
of me).  My Rainbow is a 100+ with 896K, a 20 meg hard drive,
graphics option, and two 390K floppies.  The machine is probably
5-6 years old.  The I-Drive was installed in February, 1990.
Hope this helps fill the background information gaps in my
last posting.
