It does indeed
appear that DSK2FILE requires the disk image to be
preformated. Even more irritating I can't seem to get the //gs to
read any of the disks I write with DSK2FILE :^(
Under what OS? Are you getting hard errors (disk recalibration) or soft
errors?
I was running DSK2FILE under System 6. I've tried writting a DOS 3.3 disk,
as well as those two Wizardry/Tekumel disks I posted the link to.
I've gotten zero errors, though when I try to boot the disks, it comlains it
can't.
At this point
I'm going to have to put the project on hold, as it has
now gotten me seriously backlogged on stuff that I need to get done
around here.
Don't you hate that? Stuff that should be simple gets dragged out into an
unproductive timesink needlessly. Ditch DSK2FILE and use ADT instead.
Yes, I do hate it. Will ADT run under System 6? I'd thought you had to run
a server on the Apple, and use a client on the PC to connect to it via
serial line and send the data over the serial line. It's been years since I
used it, so I might be totally off on how it works. One thing I should
probably also take a look at is "Asimov 2.0".
