Another way, if you're running an OS earlier than AmigaOS 2.1 and therefore
cannot read PC disks, would be to get hold of a shareware program called
MessyDos. It is available from AmiNet, installs quite easily, and givet
old Amigas the ability to read/write PC diskettes. Just remember that
old Amigas used double density diskettes, not high density - you therefore
must put your data on 760KB diskettes, not 1.44M. (that is, you use normal
PC diskettes but format them as 760KB).

And no - it appears there's no way to get PCs to read Amiga 880KB double density
diskettes.
