Looking at the first diskette image, it ppears that it's been
corrupted somehow (the second one is fine). Take a look at cylinder
1, side 0, sector 1. Near the beginning of the directory we see the
entries for two files, FRAME1.MAP, FRAME1.PIX (2 extents)

That's what I see: the first and third image have cross-linked files
but the second one looks OK; the question is whether the disks
themselves have a problem or whether Dave's IMD program got
confused. The first image seems to start on sector 2 and wrap
around; however, the third does start on sector1 but has errors
nevertheless.
I believe Chuck made his disks from the TeleDisk images, also I
get the cross-link error on the original as well.
I was told that these three disks have already visited several other
people who attempted to recover the files from them...
