Both omniflop.sys and fdrawcmd.sys can have problems reading disks 
formatted on a Coco. It is not the sector data or overall structure that 
is the problem but the low level format.

If there are problems, it always works better with a disk formatted on 
the PC with either of the above and then filled with data on the Coco. 
That means COPY, BACKUP, SAVE, WRITE, format L, and any of the OS-9 
write commands work fine. DSKINI or format (physical) can make the disk 
unreadable on the PC; not always but often enough to be avoided.
