Don't 8 inch drives have 77 tracks?

It's not really classic (although it does try to pretend to be
but does anyone here do anything with the P112 SBC? I am trying to
get 8" disks running on it but I am seeing some rather strange behavior.
You should probably describe the "strange behavior". There is a chance,
it isn't a P112 problem?
I was waiting to see if there were any P112 users first,
I'll start with the simple and funny one. If i run FORMAT
it formats all 80 tracks. :-) Seems like the definition
for an 8" disk as selected in the config menu is just plain
wrong. Of course, once it formats all 80 :-) tracks any
attempt to access it, like a DIR, just returns "sector not
found".
