 Ok, understood. Then i need sector format for 720K/1.4M for the
netbsd-amiga-floppy driver :)

 I don't have access to an Amiga in my University, but to a dozen
of PooCees. Copying stuff from disk unter NetBSD would help to 
reduce the complexity of copying the stuff first under ADOS to any
ADOS-Partition and then copying it under NetBSD to the targetted 
UFS partition.

 Olaf `MFS' Rhialto sure can help...
