I have no idea if anything is salvageable or useful as the disks were not
treated with kid gloves. The manual is rather short so again not sure if
it is helpful to anyone. I know you lot will understand that I didn't want
to simply bin these.

Hopefully something can be salvaged that is useful.

Nice thing is, he also pointed _me_ to that site, which I hadn't seen
before. I've gotta see if I can find the time to go into there and do some
digging...

Are you scanning them for viruses out of curiosity? I'm curious how many are truly infected vs false positives.

Subject: Don Maslin archive...
I've got the first files online here:
http://www.retroarchive.org/maslin
So far it's only the Kaypro disk images.
I'd like it if one of you that knew Don could write up a small blurb I
could use as an introduction to the archive.
I'll be getting the rest of it online as I have time.
Thanks folks.

Help! I've been trying to recreate an 8" floppy from the Altos Diagnostic
disk .tdo file recently added to the Commercial CP/M Software Archive site
(http://www.retroarchive.org/cpm/) so I can try to diagnose a hard drive
problem on my ACS8000-10A, and have so far been unsuccessful. I've been
using a Shugart 800 8" drive connected to a PC/AT floppy controller with a
34-to-50 pin adapter, and have been wearing myself out with Teledisk,
Anadisk and 22Disk for the last few days with no luck. I think I've got the
adapter pinned correctly since I'm able to use certain functions OK, but not
make that disk. When I try to use Teledisk, it tells me the .tdo source was
a 3.5" high-density FM formatted disk (?), and when it tries to write out to
the new disk, it comes up unable to find any of the sectors.
Has anyone out there been able to do this, or know of another source for the
Altos Diagnostic disk that has the hard drive utility?
Thanks,
Richard Lynch

Go ahead and give it a shot. If there are too many tracks in the
image, the drive will simply bump up against the end stop. It's till
a 500Kbps data rate. I have no idea why someone called the original
drive what they did.
Take my word for it--honest.
Cheers,
Chuck

I ran into this file a few years back and wasn't able to do much with it. I
later created my own Altos floppy images using both Teledisk and Imagedisk.
I'll send them to you offlist for you to try out.

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical
minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which
holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd
by the clean end.
