Does anyone know how to transfer files between an NCR Tower machine
running Unix and IBM PC-DOS file?  I noticed that the Tower has
a 5-1/4" floppy drive, but the only way I can write to it is via
cpio redirected to /dev/fd0.  After I do this, though, I can't read the disk
on MS-DOS.

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance...
Dario.
