The original disks that came with the Falcon are aviable on several of the ST related FTP sites. You wont have any trouble recreating them as the Falcon uses a PC compatable 1.44FDD. The hard drive is a problem though.
Atari's HD Driver will not be able to use the 1GB drive. You will have to either find a 120MB or smaller 2.5" drive to replace it, or obtain a copy of a differnt driver such as HDDriver. I have HDDriver and am running a 6GB Toshiba laptop drive in my Falcon,,, (took hours to format.. :) )
Neeodesk is very cool, but the Falcon came stock with Multi-TOS on disk and some basic apps.
Trool the FTP sites they will hook you up... Perhaps I should disk image the entire original disk image set for the Falcon and upload it somewhere,,, is this necessary??? will the forum tell us where they would like this package? Should this become necessary or legal/allowed??
