Hi everybody,

             A friend of mine has got hold of a core disk (600M+) and
was able to successfully format it on a model/60 with a RISC card. Now
having done that wants to be able to use it to run 4.3 off an RT.

Now my question is, Can he do that ? If so he want to have a maximum
utilization of the disk. I wish to solicit input from everybody on the net
on the pro's and cons on doing this. Also I want to know about any hurdles
if possible


   Thanks in advance

C Wu

RECEIVED FROM NATIONAL PUBLIC RADIO IN REGARDS TO THEIR CONTINUING
SERIES OF "AMNESTY INTERNATIONAL REPORTS":
PRISONER OF CONSCIENCE: TIAN QING
TIAN QING, deputy director of the Research Institute of Music at the
Chinese Academy of Arts in Beijing, has been held incommunicado in a
Chinese jail for four months because he gave an eyewitness account of
the crackdown on the pro-democracy movement.
   Tian Qing reportedly saw the tanks move against the unarmed students and civ
ilians. He left Beijing on June 4 and later that evening, reported on what he s
aw before an audience at the Shanghai Music Conservatory. Reports are that
Tian Qing was subsequently denounced to police by informers who listened to,
or heard about, his speech that day.
    He was arrested on September 23, 1989 and has apparently been held at a

police station in the west of Beijing. Conditions in police detention centers
are generally reported as being worse than in larger jail facilities. no
formal charges have been filed against Tian Qing, and family members have not
been allowed visitation rights.
   Tian Qing has been described to Amnesty International as a dedicated
pacifist and a Buddhist. A distinguished music historian, he has been actively
involved in the Chinese Musicians Association and the Buddhist Music Society
in Beijing and Hong Kong.
   He was well known at Shanghai Music Conservatory as a lecturer on music and
other topics. The detention of the noted musicologist is considered by
Amnesty International to be a violation of the basic right of peaceful
free speech, and he is considered a prisoner of conscience.
