I've done this with my RiscPC with success. I have lots of RISC OS <BR>> programs for reading ADFS and DFS discs.<BR>> <BR>There was a commercial application produced that came with a serial cable to connect to your Beeb so you could transfer files either way. I have a copy and the cable but I seem to remember it took over the machine (even though it had windows). 95% sure it produced by BeeBug, but memory flaky. I don't know whether it would work on an Iyonix.<BR>
