I believe many floppy drives on Athena machines need to be
cleaned/fixed/replaced.
I frequently move files to and from my PC via floppy and mtools,
however, I generally lose about 1 out of 10 floppies. After they are
damaged in Athena drives, they cannot be reformatted and reused.
The specific machine I am on now is M37-318-10, however, I have had problems
on MANY Athena machines.
If you what clarification of any of this, please write me.
