    It looks like FDI has data each byte.  Each byte shows 0x00 as absent 
transition and 0x01 as present transition.  If I write to simulate Disk II 
controller's logic sequence, will you expect each byte with absent / present 
transition may work?  Will it run succesffully if it uses standard schme? 
It needs to do more challenge to overcome copy-protected scheme.
    If simulated Disk II controller and logic sequencer runs FDI with 
copy-protected scheme successfully.  It would be good news.  If not, it may 
require to reimage FDI several times until it works successfully using 
simulated Disk II controller and logic sequencer.  I may invest my time to 
do many attempts.
    Do you expect that "Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?" with spiral 
scheme may work unless you make the FDI right?  I do not prefer to crack to 
deportect so I want FDI to look original as before without cracker screen.
