Hi Guys,
After reading recent comments (including my own), and thinking
about it for a bit - I came up with a way to make images of my
SuperBrain disks.
Seems like the "smart" disk controller in my SuperBrain always
formats with non-standard address marks.... but since it can read
and write the CompuStar disks, it does not seem to have trouble
accessing disks with standard address marks.
So.. I used ImageDisk to create some blank formatted disks (with
standard address marks), then PIP'd all the files from my original
disks to these new ones - then I read them into images, and used
ImageDisk to replace the blank system tracks with the system
tracks from the original disks (fortunately the system tracks have
standard address marks).
I tested the resulting images by writing them back to some fresh
disks and booting them in my SuperBrain - and everything seems
to work!
I've posted these "slightly modified" images of my original CP/M
and ZCPR disks for the SuperBrain to my site - look for "Intertec
SuperBrain" under "System disks".
Dave
