NOTES: | 1. | Tracks per zone is set to $0001 if bit 11 (track = zone flag) of |
|
| the attach packets attribute word (byte offset $10) is = 0. |
|
| Tracks per zone is set to the number of heads (attach packet |
|
| byte offset $07) if bit 11 (track = zone flag) of the attach |
|
| packets attribute word (byte offset $10) is = 1. |
| 2. | Alternate sectors per zone is taken from the attach packets |
|
| alternate sectors per zone field (byte offset $1E for "old" |
