I dont the 44 supported FBA...

A unique feature of the Model 44 is its integrated single disk storage drive which uses the cartridge and provides 1,171,200 bytes:?pp.5,?11? of removable disk storage built right into the CPU. A second integrated drive is available as an option.:?p.12? The Model 44 Programming System (M44PS) uses this drive as a systems residence device.:?p.7?

By which I am assuming the format of the disk is unknown and possibly the contents.

I have tools in SATK that can readily build a FBA disk image.? But you do need to know what goes on it and how it is structured on the disk.? Both of which appear to be unavailable.

Assembling it would not be a problem, DOS should be able to assemble it. However what we have is only the changes from PS/44 to make MPS/44. What is lacking it the tools to format the disk and load the decks onto the disk. So it is a lot of code to write to get it installed on a disk. It could either be installed on a 2311 or special disk for 44. Basically a couple megabyte FBA disk.
