If you have any CP/M machine that uses 8" disks, you can use that to format blank RX01 media. It's just IBM 3740 SSSD - at least, in the low level. Then you can do the high level formatting on the DEC machine.

Anyone ever formated an 8" disk to be used in an RX01 using a catweasel controller? Curious if it's worth trying this route. I have a Tandon
