- Yeah, well my question is how does one get msa to work on a 520ST with one floppy.
- Last I was trying to unpack some demo from a.a.u.e i gave up after the 40th disk
- swap or so.
- How could anyone write such a stupid program that doesn't make any use of the
- ram memory available and just reads one single track/side, unpacks it, asks for
- diskswap, writes it, asks for diskswap etc.
-
- Please, tell me if i have missed something or else stop packing disks with this
- stupid packer. There are much better packers avalable.
