I've just made images of the TOS System Disk and the BASIC
and Logo language disks - I should have them posted to my
site sometime tomorrow.

IIRC, although the ST has it's operating system in ROM, it
won't actually "do anything" unless there is a diskette in
the drive.

Fortunately the ST uses FAT format disks, so you can format
a 720K disk on a PC, put it in the drive and the OS will
come up.

Regards,
Dave
