[Coco] Help - CoCo emulator disk image formats...???

[Bert & Peggy Schneider]

Carey,

Thanks - I know he's got a great deal of formats in one program.  I bet
the NSA would be interested in this program!

Anyway, I think I'm real close - because the program is working much
longer than it did before.  I'll try to format both sides and then go
back and format using a single sided format.

Thanks

Bert

Is the floppy disk completely blank?

Since you are working with single sided disk image, I'm thinking that
maybe 
the back side of the floppy is formatted a different format, and so
omniflop 
is seeing two different formats and getting confused.

Try formatting the disk so that both sides have the same format.


You could try the 'custom' format.  It might behave differently.


Other than that, all I can suggest is contacting the author.

Undoubtably Omniflop is a complicated program.  It's trying to support a
lot 
of formats.

But it's not a reliable program.  It's also not a friendly program.

Carey
