You can do this with an 800k drive. I *think* there was a period that macos tried to write to 400k with superdrives, but I believe that it was the same failure as most other attempts to write to physically different formats (width of read, write, and erase heads comes into play). Write the image to an 800k disk from a 1.4m drive, move it to a machine w. 800k drives, and then use that to write to a virgin 400k disk--not one that has *ever* been written on by a 400k machine. Or, possibly, use a magnetic bulk eraser to clear the 400k disk before writing on a 400k drive. -- The Hawkins Law Firm Richard E. Hawkins, Esq. (702) 508-8462 hawkinslawf...@gmail.com 3025 S.
