It all started in Jan/Feb 2017 with the installation of a DOS PC with MS-DOS 6.22. Actually, after about 30 years, I just wanted to be able to read an old 5.25" floppy disk again. And now I'm even able to write to hard-sectored floppy disks (Northstar Horizon).

I followed the article from ‘legroom.net’ and it all worked wonderfully. So if, like me, you have to start from scratch, then you've come to the right place.

Start here at legroom.net. Meanwhile it is on wayback machine at archive.org.

The next two sites are by Wolfgang Kainz-Huber from Munich, Germany. He started with the Computer Museum München, but ‘moved’ some time ago and redesigned the site to Vintage Computing Lab. You will also find a lot of information here.
