Are they in standard IBM format, i.e. volume header (VOL1) on sector 7,
directory entries (HDR1) beginning on sector 8, entry size 128 bytes,
EBCDIC?
(See my page at
http://computermuseum-stuttgart.de/dev/ibm_5110/technik/en/diskops.html
for a description)
If yes, I can read and write them (I did this for my 5110 disks). Another
way would be to create a disk dump (e.g. with AnaDisk) and copy the
relevant sectors into a new file.
