Emax

Mmm, so the formatting problem also occurs with some EMAX-II machines.
I don't know if this can be fixed. There's an "alternative" driver in 
the files section (testdriver), but the major difference between this 
one and the one in the EMXP package only affects floppy drives 
capable of 2.88 floppies.

Anyway, the format problem will not be an issue for the ZIP disks, as 
there will only be read/write support for ZIP disks :-)

I will restrict the ZIP100 features in EMXP to EMAX-II samplers OS v 
2.14, because the EMAX-I ZIP layout could be different and I don't 
want anyone to destroy the EMAX banks on their ZIP disks...
