Windows for emulation on HD floppy question

Hi,

I have an original set of windows (3.11 I think) disks which I would like to use with PC-Task. Problem is, they are on High Density disks. Is there a way of using a PC to create a set of Double Density install disks from them?

Cheers

@lurkist

Get a HD floppy drive for your Amiga. PC-Task can deal with it.

Or create image files from the floppy disks and use a virtual floppy drive with PC-Task. This would be much faster anyway.

I used file.device which comes with XFS with PC-Task.

Bye,
Thomas
