I have serveral floppy stations, f.e. some 1050 and one XF551 with the following issue:
Floppies first behave 'normal'. I can boot any DOS on any densities with these stations properly.
After I have booted up I insert a new 5,25" disk into the drive and try to format this disk with my OS (S/E/D/Qu).
Format procedure starts and all forty tracks get formatted (head moves forty times).
Then these floppies try to write the directory onto the disk but obviously not successful.
I get an error on screen and the disk is eventually not formatted ...
Did anyone had that problem, too?
