It's been a long time, but (IIRC), could an Amiga not read ST disks?   I had 
an Amiga and I'm pretty sure a mate of mine fiddled with the mountlist to 
get the Amiga to read ST disks.   No direct help I know, but it might widen 
the net if there's an Amiga out there that could help you presumably via 
CrossDOS.
