Cromemco C-10

[bah111]

Hi, Really like the device. Just about to order one and test it out. I have a HxC and a SuperCard Pro the latter of which I have not used much (as I just got it). I have a Cromemco C-10 which is an old CPM machine from 1983 era and it had an unusual format in that the first track was single density and the latter ones double density - it was supposedly so their other machines/older machines could always read the first track and decide if it could be booted (it has a marker which tells the computer what format the rest of the disk is -SSDD/DSDD/DSSD/,etc). Anyway, I was wonder if you are interested in any examples - I have IMG, SCF, HFE (and others since HxC has a nice converter). Let me know - am sure I could even email some. Thanks Brett

Thanks very much!

Mixed-format disks should work right now --- assuming it's an IBM format disk the encoding is autodetected on a per-track basis, so they should Just Work. Writing is harder but can be made to work too (theoretically).

A sample would be nice --- SCP for preference...

If you're still around, we now have solid support for writing mixed-format disks: see https://github.com/davidgiven/fluxengine/blob/master/src/formats/n88basic.textpb So if you're still interested, this can be made to happen.
