Creating floppies from DSK2FILE 5.7
I have been attempting to create floppies from some of the Asimov
archive that I had stashed on a CD in the back room. My luck has been
mixed. I successfully created a copy of Beyond Castle Wolfenstein on a
140k disk which appears to run perfectly, and a copy of Pirates! on a
800k disk, but my copy of Conan, and most other games just drop me to a
monitor prompt.
My process is I format the disk with Copy II plus with the right format,
either Dos 3.3, or ProDOS (I know this probably doesn't matter, but I do
it anyway). I grab the disk image on my mac, and I extract it with
stuffit expander, as most programs are gzipped. I then use dsk2file to
create an image of the correct type on the correct disk.
Any flaws in that?
