Has ANYONE been able to create a double sided boot disk yet????
If so, how....And don't give me the way you think it MIGHT work!!!
I'm interested in finding someone who HAS ALREADY DONE IT.

I tried copying the boot sector from a single side to a double sided disk,
but that crashes the directory and capacity info....After patching those
tidbits back, it still won't do it.....What else am i missing?
