Craig--
Can you be more specific on a few things?
1) Exactly what model Apple II are you using? What memory size?
2) What serial interface are you using?
3) Is this just one particular floppy, or any floppy?
Have you tried sending disk images to the PC? Have you tried sending
the "master created" disk back to the PC then down to the Apple again?
Can you use the disk images on a PC-based emulator? Have you looked at
the non-working disk with a sector editor?
The master create program also does one special thing, which is to
work on Apple IIs with less than the full 48k of RAM. Whereas most
"slave" images you make will assume a full 48k. There is an
ever-so-slight chance that a hardware memory problem of some kind would
allow a master to boot, while a 48k "slave" would load DOS into flaky
memory.
