I'd not realized it was the same footprint.  In that case, this probably is
the best way for me to go.  Plus I think I can easily get to at least one of
my //gs's.  The doc's, and the box of stuff for it will no doubt be more
interesting...

Thanks!  That's what I was thinking of.  Though I used a Mac version to 
transfer files between my SE/30 and //e.

Is there a //gs program to do this?  It would be easier to write disks with
the emulator images on my PowerBook 520c, and then use the //gs to write
them to 5.25" floppies.
