Floppy disk images on PC and Mac: Greaseweazle Tools 1.1 / Firmware 1.2
Keir Fraser's "Greaseweazle" does - similar to Kryoflux - read the magnetic information on a floppy disk independently from the format used and saves as much information as possible to generate a so-called "Flux Level Image" in Supercard format (SCP), which enables reading and back-writing of copy-protected disks (amiga-news.de reported). The adapter gets connected between a floppy disk drive - e.g. a standard 3.5" PC one - and a USB port of the PC or Mac.
Changes of Greaseweazle Tools 1.1:
- New IMG formats: pc98.dd, pc98.hd
- IBM FM, MFM: Fix bugs in raw track decoder
- gw info: Report MCU information (type, speed, SRAM)
Changes of Greaseweazle Firmware 1.2:
- Support AT32F403A MCU on F1 and V4 boards
- Send MCU info to host (reported by gw info)
The Greaseweazle is available from various retailers. (dr)
